# AWS Public IP Address

# AWS Public IP Address pattern-based discovery {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated June 15, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns finds AWS public IP addresses (Elastic IPs) in your cloud environment. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.

## Pattern-based discovery and mapping requirements {#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__section_rpj_fj2_bgc}

Verify the AWS discovery prerequisites section in [AWS discovery using patterns](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NFaTlkGaSxMWb2bQPsCnCA "Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns uses patterns to discover components of the Amazon AWS Cloud deployment during horizontal discovery. Discovering some of these resources might require updating to the latest version of the Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns application from the ServiceNow Store.").

## Data collected by Discovery during horizontal discovery {#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__section_ggp_ql2_bgc}

Discovery populates the data in the CMDB when running the Amazon AWS - Public IP Address (LP) pattern.  
{#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__table_mkf_2hc_dgc__entry__2}

| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Name \[name\] | Name or allocation ID if no Name is specified for the public IP address. |
| Object ID \[object_id\] | The ID representing the allocation of the address for use with EC2-VPC. |
| Public IP Address \[public_ip\] | The Elastic IP address. |
[Table 1. Cloud Public IP Address \[cmdb_ci_cloud_public_ipaddress\]]

## CI relationships and references {#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__section_dc4_ghc_dgc}

The Amazon AWS - Public IP Address (LP) pattern creates the following relationships and references to support AWS Public IP Address discovery. References link to records in other tables and don't appear in the CI Relationship \[cmdb_rel_ci\] table.  
{#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__table_bkg_jhc_dgc__entry__3}

| CI | Relationship | CI |
|-|-|-|
| Cloud Public IP Address \[cmdb_ci_cloud_public_ipaddress\] | Hosted on::Hosts | AWS Datacenter \[cmdb_ci_aws_datacenter\] |

| Key Value \[cmdb_key_value\] | Configuration item \[configuration_item\] | Cloud Public IP Address \[cmdb_ci_cloud_public_ipaddress\] |
[Table 3. CI references]

{#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__table_ci_references}

## AWS Tag discovery {#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__section_lyw_zhc_dgc}

The Amazon AWS - Public IP Address (LP) pattern collects tags and populates them in the Key Value \[cmdb_key_value\] table.  
{#aws-public-ip-address-pattern__table_ojy_vss_5hc__entry__2}

| Field | Description |
|-|-|
| Key \[key\] | Tag name. |
| Value \[value\] | Tag value. |
| Configuration item \[configuration_item\] | References the Cloud Public IP Address \[cmdb_ci_cloud_public_ipaddress\] table. |
