### Review databases data
357+
358+
You can select the name of a database to view all the attributes and additional metadata discovered for that workload in a detailed view. This allows you to explore any issues encountered during the discovery of the database and can add, edit, or delete tags for an individual database. You can review the following details for each database:
359+
360+
**Tab name** | **Details**
361+
--- | ---
362+
Overview | This tab provides an overview of the database instance, including the server name hosting the database, its support status, and the database size. It also offers a comprehensive overview of the platform configuration, HADR configuration, and discovery details.
363+
Tags | The database has a list of custom tags, and you can edit or delete existing tags or add new ones.
364+
Issues |This section details the issues encountered during the database discovery, their possible causes, and the recommended remediations for successful discovery.
365+
366+
### Scope database data
367+
368+
After reviewing the databases and their attributes, you can either **Select all workloads across pages** or use the **Search** and **Filter** capabilities to perform the necessary actions on the database inventory.
369+
370+
You can narrow down the list in the database view by searching for the database name or applying filters based on attributes or tags. You can also add a tag to name the scoped workload.
371+
372+
After reviewing the inventory, you can perform the following actions on all databases or a scoped set of databases:
373+
374+
**Action name** | **Details**
