# Access Inventory

The inventory page lets you browse and query your entire IAM configuration, combining data from your identity provider, IAM policies, your access logs, and P0's [IAM Privilege Catalog](https://catalog.p0.dev).

### Search interface

When you land on the **Inventory** page, you'll be presented with a search interface. At the top of this view you'll see a query control, and, below, all items that match your query. By default results are returned in a asset table. Everything in your IAM configuration matches an empty search, so you'll see everything listed at first.

#### Asset list

To search for something specific, simply type any text included in that IAM datum into the "where" bar:

For detailed information on how to query your data, see [Query Search](/inventory/query-search.md). You can also have P0 help you construct queries by hovering over items:

Clicking "show" or "hide" will update your query to show or hide the selected items.

You can display credentials, entitlements, identities, or resources by selecting these in the "show" selection:

For each item, you can see detailed information by selecting "view," which will take you to the relevant [Result Details](/inventory/result-details.md) page.

#### Graph visualization

Results can also be viewed as a graph visualization. You will see all items that can reach your search terms, as well as the access paths that connect them.

You can get more information on any node in your access graph by clicking on it, which will open a view of all that graph node's properties.

### Creating custom monitors

You create custom monitors from the Inventory page. Results from these monitors will appear in [Monitor Results](/posture/monitor-results.md) on every scan of your environment. To create a custom monitor:

* Select a "show" option and enter a "where" query
* After ensuring that the displayed results match your expectations, click "Create monitor"
* Follow the prompts to add a title, description, and severity for your monitor
