I have a GUID value, I want to search the object behind it though I don't know what may be, it can be anything, is there a way to do the search?

Thanks

Hello @Liangping Cai and welcome to Microsoft Q&A,

Could you please give some more context?
GUID is usually the property of an object. Without knowing more I cannot tell you how to search.

Could you please share a few additional details? An example would be great.

Ideally, I would want a tenant scope search of all objects which have any guid type property and the value of which is in the search criteria

@Liangping Cai

So you are looking for a way to search azure resources you have deployed? You are not looking to do a search in your data?
Does this have anything to do with Azure Databricks, or are you using something else?

-- no it doesnt have anything to do with azure databricks, I tagged it databricks only because the field is required.

No context needed. How do you resolve a GUID to name?

Hello @Liangping Cai ,

Not sure i fully understand your objective but if you are trying to correlate an Azure resource to a resource ID/GUID then check out the Get-AzResource PowerShell cmdlet.
There are a few examples in the above link for your reference.

Have a good weekend.
