IaC-Ignored assets

Some assets are automatically ignored by built-in exclusion rules. You can also ignore assets using rules you create. IaC-Ignored assets will not appear or affect the IaC Coverage.

IaC coverage by percentage

Ignoring assets enables you to achieve optimal IaC coverage. Default components in your cloud account, such as subnets, VPCs, and default assets are automatically ignored using Firefly's custom ignore rules. Ignore rules conceal insignificant Inventory assets, and these assets do not appear in the filters or search. Ignored assets are also excluded from notifications.

Whenever you add an ignore rule, it appears in the Inventory filter under IaC-Ignored. You can search for a specific rule to view which assets are ignored by this rule.
