Inventory

Inventory

Inventory displays a centralized inventory of all FortiGate and FortiWifi devices from all FortiGate Cloud instances in a domain group, regardless of region. For example, if you access Inventory from the Europe region, you see the region of a connected FortiGate Cloud instance from the global region.

Inventory is divided into tabs:

  • FortiGate Inventory
  • FortiCare Inventory
  • FortiGate Cloud Deployed
  • FortiManager Deployed
  • FortiManager Cloud Deployed

You can filter each list by searching for the device serial number (SN) in the searchbar.

If you add devices using the FortiDeploy bulk key, the FortiGate Inventory, FortiGate Cloud Deployed, FortiManager Deployed, and FortiManager Cloud Deployed tabs allow you to filter the device list by the FortiDeploy bulk key, and display a Bulk Key column in the device list.

FortiGate Inventory

FortiGate Inventory displays the inventory of all FortiGate and FortiWifi devices imported by FortiCloud key or FortiDeploy bulk key to FortiGate Cloud, including each device's subscription status. The inventory provides a centralized view of all devices imported into the Europe and global services. From here, you can deploy devices to FortiGate Cloud or FortiManager, if configured. You can also delete an imported device from the inventory.

Once the Status column displays that the process is complete, these devices deploy to FortiManager, and you can view their SNs on the FortiManager Deployed tab. Once deployed to FortiManager, FortiGate Cloud has no control over the device. You cannot manage the device in FortiGate Cloud until you set central management back to FortiGate Cloud.
To delete a device from inventory:
  1. On the homepage, go to Inventory.
  2. Select the desired devices.

  4. In the confirmation dialog, click OK.

FortiCare Inventory

FortiCare Inventory displays the devices that are registered to FortiCloud under the account's primary administrator email address with a verified key. Admin users with full account management access can view and deploy these devices from the FortiCare Inventory to FortiGate Cloud. To deploy FortiCloud devices to FortiGate Cloud, follow the instructions in To deploy a device to FortiGate Cloud:, from the FortiCare Inventory tab. To deploy FortiCare devices to FortiManager, follow the instructions in To deploy a device to FortiManager: from the FortiCare Inventory tab.

FortiGate Cloud Deployed, FortiManager Deployed, and FortiManager Cloud Deployed

The FortiGate Cloud Deployed, FortiManager Deployed, and FortiManager Cloud Deployed tabs displays all FortiGate and FortiWifi devices deployed to FortiGate Cloud, FortiManager, and FortiManager Cloud respectively. The tabs also display the devices' subscription statuses and the date and time that they were deployed. Click a device SN to access Analytics, Management, and Sandbox functions for that device.

The FortiGate Inventory tab provides a centralized view of all devices imported into the Europe and global services. However, after you deploy a FortiGate to FortiGate Cloud, you can only view the FortiGates deployed to the service that you are currently logged in to on the FortiGate Cloud Deployed tab. For example, if you are currently logged in to the Europe service, the FortiGate Cloud Deployed tab only displays FortiGates deployed to the FortiGate Cloud Europe service.
