Fix Inventory Shell

The fixsh command starts Fix Inventory Shell (fixshell), which is used to interact with fixcore.

Fix Inventory Shell allows you to explore the graph, find resources of interest, mark them for cleanup, fix their tagging, aggregate over their metadata to create metrics, and format the output for use in a third-party script or system.

info

See Launch Fix Inventory for instructions on how to start Fix Inventory Shell.

Please refer to Command-Line Interface for details on how to use Fix Inventory Shell.
