Using Python

You can also use Python...

import oci
import json

CONFIG = oci.config.from_file("~/.oci/config", "DEFAULT")
compartment_id = "ocid1.compartment.oc1..aaaaaaaaxxxxxxxxx"

search_client = oci.resource_search.ResourceSearchClient(CONFIG)
query = f"query all resources where compartmentId = '{compartment_id}'"
search_response = search_client.search_resources(
    search_details=oci.resource_search.models.StructuredSearchDetails(
        type="Structured",
        query=query,
    ),
    limit=1000,
)
print(f"Compartment has {len(search_response.data.items)} resources")
print(json.loads(str(search_response.data.items)))
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Using the Console

Alternatively, you can use OCI Search feature on the console. See: Querying Resources, Services, Documentation, and Marketplace. From the OCI console, go to Advanced Search > Query for everything.

You can also use the Tenancy Explorer feature in the Console to see all work requests of all resources in the tenancy.
