# Official sources

Use this reference only when you need source grounding for Cloud Asset Inventory service behavior or the detailed source list.

## Google Cloud documentation

Use these as starting points, not as proof of the user's live GCP state:
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/overview
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/searching-resources
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/monitoring-asset-changes
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/supported-asset-types
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/analyzing-iam-policy
- https://cloud.google.com/asset-inventory/docs/org-policy-analysis
- https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/export-data-bigquery

## Grounding rule

Official documentation explains Cloud Asset Inventory service behavior. It does not prove the user's current resource state, label coverage, stale resource list, or org policy compliance posture. Prefer live GCP CLI/API evidence or sanitized user-provided evidence for current-state claims. Change history is limited to 35 days.
