Resource List FAQs

Why Can't I Delete Resources on the Resource List Page?

On the Resource List page, you can only view resources and export resource details. To delete a resource, you need to click View Details in the Operation column to go to the corresponding service page.

Why Does Resource Information Remain Unchanged on the Resource List Page After a Change Has Been Made to the Resource?

There is a delay in synchronizing related resource information to Config.

If you have enabled the resource recorder, Config corrects resource data within 24 hours after a change is made to a resource. If the resource recorder remains disabled, Config periodically corrects the resource data based on your activities. Resource historical information and message content will also be collectively updated.

Why Some Tags Cannot Be Used to Perform Operations (For Example, Filtering Resources) on Config?

If tags have not been synchronized to Config, you cannot use the tags to perform any operations on Config console.

If you evaluate resources using tags that are unknown to Config, errors may occur.

Config will continue to collect resource information.
