Observation documents describe the actual state of a resource. Each resource type has its own schema for its Observation documents. Go to Resources to see the complete list of resource-specific Observation documents.
Inspectors return Observation documents.
For example, a file resource observation document might look like this:
{
"kind": "file",
"name": "/tmp/foo",
"exists": true,
"size": 3493,
"sha": "c30a7f7531c41ec102fb5510d58166b502f68437",
"user": "foo",
"group": "bar",
...
}
