Cloud Asset Discovery

[Dave_LaFleur71]

Good day all.

My team and I have been trying to setup Cloud Asset Discovery with some mixed results.  We are using AWS for our cloud environment.  The first thing we tried to do was the Organization Unit ID or Root ID.  We entered our Role ARN, then our OU / r-xxxx (tried both ways) and clicked List Accounts.  All of our accounts were listed.  We did not make any changes to the workloads (asset types) which I will get to in a minute.  We selected our region and created a new trigger.  We watched and waited for the scan to start at the desired start time we chose, and nothing happened.  We assume that since our accounts were listed, that we should have received something back from the scan.  Any thoughts?

Next, we went the Standalone account method.  We entered our Role ARN, clicked list accounts.  the account showed up and we clicked the radio button selecting it.  (this is where my next problem happens)  For the filters, we did NOT make any changes, leaving all workloads selected.  (do not recommend this).  Next we selected our region and created a new trigger.  We waited and watched for the scan to kick off..   And BOY did it.  It found over 1,300 items.  To me that was a bit over whelming.  So with that being said, this was not our intended outcome.  We were simply looking for the Account VPC, the ec2 Instances in the VPCs along with their S3 buckets.  

I then went into inventory and selected all the new AWS items that came in with the intentions of deleting them from inventory.  However, it turns out that I was not able to do so.  The delete option was grayed out and when hovered over gave a message stating "this action cannot be executed on cloud asset types".  This caught me totally off guard....  No matter where I tried to bulk delete, it would not let me delete these Items.  However, if I went into each record one at a time, I would be able to delete them.  This is not really a viable option.

So for that issue, does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get rid of the 1,300 items that came in with that scan so I can clean up my cloud environment before I try any other testing.

Thanks in advance...
