The Findings inbox (/findings) is your workspace-wide triage view for AWS waste. Instead of opening each scan report in history, paying customers can review open findings, manage lifecycle actions, and expand remediation scripts from one page.
What the inbox shows
Parsivex loads findings from the latest successful scan per connected AWS account in your workspace. Each row includes:
- Finding type and title
- Estimated monthly savings
- Lifecycle status (open, snoozed, dismissed, or resolved)
- First seen date and linked resources
- A link to the scan report where the finding was detected
By default, the inbox lists open findings sorted by savings (high to low) — the same waste that counts toward your report's potential savings headline.
Status filters
Use the tabs across the top to switch views:
| Tab | What you see |
|---|---|
| Open | Active findings that need attention |
| Snoozed | Findings hidden until a date you chose |
| Dismissed | Findings you marked as not an issue |
| Resolved | Findings Parsivex verified as fixed after a successful re-scan |
The sidebar Findings badge shows the count of open findings only — it updates when you dismiss, snooze, or reopen items so it always matches the Open tab.
Sorting
Change the sort order with the dropdown:
- Savings (high to low) — prioritize the biggest monthly wins (default)
- Type — group similar waste (EC2, S3, RDS, and so on)
- First seen — oldest findings first
Search and filters
Use the toolbar below the status tabs to narrow the list:
- Search — match a resource ID (for example
i-0abc123) or words from the finding title - Service — show only one AWS service family (EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, and so on)
- AWS account — when your workspace has multiple connected accounts, filter to one account ID
- Minimum savings — hide findings below a monthly savings threshold (for example $100+/mo)
Active filters appear as removable chips with a Clear all action, so you always know what is applied.
Filter and sort choices are stored in the page URL. Copy the address bar link to share an exact view with a teammate, bookmark a triage queue, or use the browser back and forward buttons to move through recent filter changes.
Keyboard triage
Press ? (or choose Findings keyboard shortcuts from the command palette) to see the full list. Shortcuts are disabled while your cursor is in a text field.
| Key | Action |
|---|---|
| j / k | Move focus to the next or previous finding |
| x | Select or deselect the focused finding |
| e | Dismiss the focused open finding |
| Enter | Expand or collapse the focused finding |
Lifecycle actions
From each row's actions menu you can:
- Dismiss — mark a finding as not an issue (optional reason)
- Snooze — hide for 30 or 90 days
- Reopen — return a dismissed or snoozed finding to open
These actions work the same way as on a scan report. See Finding lifecycle for how statuses carry forward across scans.
Bulk selection and actions
Use the checkboxes on each row — or Select all above the list — to triage multiple findings at once. Selection applies only to the findings currently shown in the active tab and sort order, not your entire workspace history.
When one or more findings are selected, a bulk action bar appears with:
- The number of selected findings
- The combined potential monthly savings for your selection
- Dismiss, Snooze, or Reopen (depending on the active tab)
Bulk dismiss asks for confirmation and shows how many findings and how much potential savings you are about to remove from your open totals. Bulk snooze offers the same 30- and 90-day options as the per-row menu.
Changing tabs or the sort order clears your selection so you never act on a stale, hidden set of rows.
Remediation scripts
Click a row to expand it. If your plan includes remediation scripts, Parsivex loads executable AWS CLI or Terraform commands for that finding behind the Fix it panel.
Always read the safety guide before running commands in your AWS account.
Full scan reports
The page header links to your latest full report when a completed scan exists. Use that when you need scan-level context — executive summary, inventory breakdown, or sharing — while the inbox is for day-to-day triage.
Free tier
The findings inbox requires a paid plan (scan.view_findings). Free accounts can still run scans; upgrade to see which resources are wasting money and manage findings from the inbox.
