# Application Asset Queries

Use **Application Asset** queries to view your software development life cycle (SLDC) as a graphical representation that allows you to explore assets and connections, including data collected by Prisma Cloud from system environments and subscriptions.

This visibility allows you to perform an in-depth analysis of security issues across your entire engineering ecosystem. You can understand the assets in your environment and the relationships between them.

You cannot save the Application Asset queries queries under **Saved Queries** or run **Background Jobs**.

From the Investigate page, you can access the Package Dependency graph that is within the Application Asset graph. You can explore the package dependencies from code repositories using the Simple Mode query builder and query about packages, licenses, and vulnerabilities. If the package you are exploring is a transitive one, you can view the dependency tree by clicking on the *indirect* edge.

Make sure you have registered with the Cloud Application Security SCA module. Use cases of the Supply Chain graph, such as Image Referencer and IaC Resources Exploration, are not yet integrated into the Application Asset Graph.

## 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/search-and-investigate/application-asset-queries.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.
