AWS now provides immediate access to resource search capabilities in all accounts through AWS Resource Explorer. With this launch, you no longer need to activate Resource Explorer to discover your resources in a Region.
To start searching, you need, at minimum, permissions in the AWS Resource Explorer Read Only Access or AWS Read Only Access managed policies. You can discover resources in the AWS Resource Explorer console, Unified Search, and AWS CLI and SDKs. To search the full inventory of supported resources, including historical backfill and automatic updates, complete Resource Explorer setup. This requires additional permissions to create a Service-Linked Role, so that Resource Explorer can automatically complete setup in each Region where you search. You can also enable cross-Region search to discover resources across all Regions in your AWS account with one-click in the Console, or with a single API call using the new CreateResourceExplorerSetup API.
This feature is available at no additional cost in all AWS Regions where Resource Explorer is supported. To start searching for your resources, visit the AWS Resource Explorer console. Read about getting started in the AWS Resource Explorer documentation, or explore the AWS Resource Explorer product page.
