# Monitor and Identify AWS Activities

This article describes how to do the following:

* Monitor and track access to your AWS data assets in real-time.
* Identify actors who are reading, writing, or modifying your AWS data assets, along with timestamps for their last actions.
* Visualize actions performed by different actors up to 90 days in the past.

### Monitor and identify AWS activities

1. Navigate to the storage bucket whose active identities you wish to view.
   1. In Prisma Cloud DSPM, click Inventory.
   2. In Inventory, click the name of the specific storage bucket you want to view.

2. View how and when each actor interacted with the data assets. For example, identify when a specific actor last wrote an event.

3. Use the filters to narrow the search. For example, use the filters to search for all actors who wrote an event before a specific date.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.prismacloud.io/content-collections/data-security-posture-management/how-to-articles/monitor-and-identify-aws-activities.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
