Resource browser

The Resource browser provides a live view of the data on the selected managed host. Using the Resource browser, you can browse through the supported files system to view and manage security information for folders and shares on the target managed host.

The Resource browser displays the following information:

  • For a Windows computer, the shares and file system display.
  • For a SharePoint farm, each farm is represented as a hierarchy, with the farm as the top level, followed by web applications, site collections, sites and then the contents of the site. The contents of a list are shown as “list item”, regardless of the type of item in SharePoint. The Resource browser displays a list of the web applications on the selected farm.
  • For a Distributed File System Root, links are displayed at the top level. Browsing into a link shows its target paths and browsing into a target path takes you to the appropriate backing folder. While browsing a backing folder, the Distributed File System path is shown in the Location field at the top of the page.
  • For Cloud managed hosts, each site is represented by a folder hierarchy, with the Home top level site displayed as Site contents folder, followed by all other subsites. Each site contains a Site contents folder encompassing other nested folders. The contents of a site and document library are shown as "folder" type, whereas, files are shown as "file" type items. No other resource types are managed for Cloud managed hosts.

    NOTE: The Resource browser and resource access reports do not display the limited access users or "previewer" accounts.

You can display the Resource browser from the following views:

  • Managed hosts view
  • Accounts view
  • Governed data view
