# Data Sources - Search


The Search Data Sources resource provides statistical data and other information about AWS resources that Amazon Macie monitors and analyzes for your account. The information includes quantitative breakdowns that indicate how much data Macie can analyze to detect sensitive data in a resource, and whether and when that analysis occurred. The data is available for all the AWS resources that Macie monitors and analyzes for your account. If you're the Macie administrator for an organization, this includes resources that your member accounts own.

Note that complete data is available for a resource only if Macie can retrieve and process information about the resource. If permissions settings, an error, or a quota prevents Macie from retrieving and processing the information, statistical data and other information about the resource is limited. Macie can provide only a subset of the information, such as the name of the resource and the account ID for the AWS account that owns the resource.

In addition to querying data about resources, you can use the Search Data Sources resource to build, test, and refine runtime criteria for new classification jobs. These criteria can determine which Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) general purpose buckets a job analyzes when it runs. For existing classification jobs, you can use this resource to create a snapshot of the S3 general purpose buckets that currently match the criteria. This is because the `SearchResourcesBucketCriteria` structure for this resource is the same as the `S3BucketCriteriaForJob` structure for classification jobs. The exception is the `automatedDiscoveryMonitoringStatus` field. Jobs don't support use of that field in runtime criteria. To learn more about specifying runtime criteria for jobs, see [Scope options for jobs](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/macie/latest/user/discovery-jobs-scope.html) in the *Amazon Macie User Guide*.

You can use the Search Data Sources resource to query (retrieve) statistical data and other information about AWS resources that Macie monitors and analyzes for your account. To customize and refine your query, use the supported parameters to specify how to filter, sort, and paginate the results. You can also use this resource to build and test S3 bucket criteria for classification jobs.

For example, the bucket has a restrictive bucket policy and Amazon S3 denied the request.   `BUCKET_COUNT_EXCEEDS_QUOTA` - Retrieving and processing the information would exceed the quota for the number of buckets that Macie monitors for an account (10,000).  If this value is null, Macie was able to retrieve and process the information. |

In a `BucketMetadata` or `MatchingBucket` object, this data is for a specific bucket. In a `GetBucketStatisticsResponse` object, this data is aggregated for all the buckets in the query results.
