Description

Gets policy compliance states for resources. Policy state records can be queried at various scopes. Based on the time interval specified (defaults to last day), either latest policy states or all policy state transitions can be queried. Results can be filtered, grouped, and group aggregations can be computed.

Example 15: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with OrderBy, Top and Select query options

Get-AzPolicyState -OrderBy "Timestamp desc, PolicyAssignmentName asc" -Top 5 -Select "Timestamp, ResourceId, PolicyAssignmentId, PolicySetDefinitionId, PolicyDefinitionId, IsCompliant"

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command orders the results by timestamp and policy assignment name properties, and takes only top 5 of those listed in that order. It also selects to list only a subset of the columns for each record.

Example 16: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with From and To query options

Get-AzPolicyState -From "2018-03-08 00:00:00Z" -To "2018-03-15 00:00:00Z"

Example 17: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with Filter query option

Get-AzPolicyState -Filter "(PolicyDefinitionAction eq 'deny' or PolicyDefinitionAction eq 'audit') and ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant' and ResourceLocation ne 'eastus'"

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command limits the results returned by filtering based on policy definition action (includes deny or audit actions), compliance status (includes only non-compliant status) and resource location (excludes eastus location).

Example 18: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with Apply specifying row count aggregation

Get-AzPolicyState -Apply "aggregate(`$count as NumberOfRecords)"

Gets the number of latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command returns the count of the policy state records only, which is returned inside AdditionalProperties property.

Example 19: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with Apply specifying grouping with aggregation

Get-AzPolicyState -Filter "ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant'" -Apply "groupby((PolicyAssignmentId, PolicySetDefinitionId, PolicyDefinitionReferenceId, PolicyDefinitionId), aggregate(`$count as NumStates))" -OrderBy "NumStates desc" -Top 5

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command limits the results returned by filtering based on compliance status (includes only non-compliant status). It groups the results based on policy assignment, policy set definition, and policy definition, and computes the number of records in each group, which is returned inside AdditionalProperties property. It orders the results by the count aggregation in descending order, and takes only top 5 of those listed in that order.

Example 20: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with Apply specifying grouping without aggregation

Get-AzPolicyState -Filter "ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant'" -Apply "groupby((ResourceId))"

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command limits the results returned by filtering based on compliance status (includes only non-compliant status). It groups the results based on resource id. This generates the list of all resources within the subscription that are non-compliant for at least one policy.

Example 21: Get latest policy states in current subscription scope, with Apply specifying multiple groupings

Get-AzPolicyState -Filter "ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant'" -Apply "groupby((PolicyAssignmentId, PolicySetDefinitionId, PolicyDefinitionReferenceId, PolicyDefinitionId, ResourceId))/groupby((PolicyAssignmentId, PolicySetDefinitionId, PolicyDefinitionReferenceId, PolicyDefinitionId), aggregate(`$count as NumNonCompliantResources))" -OrderBy "NumNonCompliantResources desc" -Top 5

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources within the subscription in current session context. The command limits the results returned by filtering based on compliance status (includes only non-compliant status). It groups the results first based on policy assignment, policy set definition, policy definition, and resource id. Then, it further groups the results of this grouping with the same properties except for resource id, and computes the number of records in each of these groups, which is returned inside AdditionalProperties property. It orders the results by the count aggregation in descending order, and takes only top 5 of those listed in that order. This generates the top 5 policies with the most number of non-compliant resources.

Example 22: Get latest policy states including policy evaluation details for a resource

Get-AzPolicyState -ResourceId "/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/resourceGroups/myResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.EventHub/namespaces/myns1/eventhubs/eh1/consumergroups/cg1" -Expand "PolicyEvaluationDetails"

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for the specified resource and expand policyEvaluationDetails.

Example 23: Get latest component policy states for a resource (eg. vault) given a resource provider mode policy assignment

Get-AzPolicyState -ResourceId "/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/resourceGroups/myResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/myvault" -Filter "policyAssignmentId eq '/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/ddd8ef92e3714a5ea3d208c1'" -Expand "Components(`$filter=ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant' or ComplianceState eq 'Compliant')"

Gets latest component policy state records generated in the last day for the specified resource, given a resource provider mode policy assignment that references a resource provider mode policy definition.

Example 24: Get latest component policy states for a resource (eg. vault) given a policy initiative assignment that contains a resource provider mode policy definition

Get-AzPolicyState -ResourceId "/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/resourceGroups/myResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/myvault" -Filter "policyAssignmentId eq '/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/ddd8ef92e3714a5ea3d208c1' and policyDefinitionReferenceId eq 'myResourceProviderModeDefinitionReferenceId'" -Expand "Components(`$filter=ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant' or ComplianceState eq 'Compliant')"

Gets latest component policy state records generated in the last day for the specified resource, given a resource provider mode policy assignment that references an initiative containing a resource provider mode policy definition.

Example 25: Get latest component counts by compliance state for a resource (eg. vault) given a resource provider mode policy assignment

Get-AzPolicyState -ResourceId "/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/resourceGroups/myResourceGroup/providers/Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/myvault" -Filter "policyAssignmentId eq '/subscriptions/a0a0a0a0-bbbb-cccc-dddd-e1e1e1e1e1e1/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/ddd8ef92e3714a5ea3d208c1'" -Expand "Components(`$filter=ComplianceState eq 'NonCompliant' or ComplianceState eq 'Compliant' or ComplianceState eq 'Conflict';`$apply=groupby((complianceState),aggregate(`$count as count)))"

Gets latest component counts generated in the last day grouped by compliance state for the specified resource, given a resource provider mode policy assignment.

Example 26: Get policy states for a management group scope policy assignment

Get-AzPolicyState -SubscriptionId "aaaa0a0a-bb1b-cc2c-dd3d-eeeeee4e4e4e" -Filter "policyAssignmentId eq '/providers/Microsoft.Management/managementGroups/myManagementGroup/providers/Microsoft.Authorization/policyAssignments/ddd8ef92e3714a5ea3d208c1'"

Gets latest policy state records generated in the last day for all resources (within the tenant in current session context) in the specified subscription affected by the specified policy assignment (which is assigned to a management group which is an ancestor of the specified subscription).
