# View principals sharing with you
<a name="working-with-shared-view-principals"></a>

You can view a list of all the principals that are sharing resources with you. You can see which resources and resource shares they're sharing with you.

------
#### [ Console ]

**To view the principals that are sharing resources with you**

1. Open the AWS RAM console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/ram/home](https://console.aws.amazon.com/ram/home).

1. Because AWS RAM resource shares exist in specific AWS Regions, choose the appropriate AWS Region from the dropdown list in the upper-right corner of the console. To see resource shares that contain global resources, you must set the AWS Region to US East (N. Virginia), (`us-east-1`). For more information about sharing global resources, see [Sharing Regional resources compared to global resources](working-with-regional-vs-global.md).

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Shared with me**, **Principals**.

1. (Optional) You can apply a filter to find specific principals. You can apply multiple filters to narrow your search.

1. The console displays the following information:
   + **Principal ID** – The ID of the principal who is sharing with you.
   + **Resource shares** – The number of resource shares to which the principal has added you. Choose the number to view the list of resource shares.
   + **Resources** – The number of resources the principal is sharing with you. Choose the value to view the list of resources.

#### [ AWS CLI ]

**To view the principals that are sharing resources with you**  
You can use the [list-principals](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/ram/list-principals.html) command to retrieve the list of principals that are sharing resources with your AWS account.

The following example command displays details about the AWS account that shared a resource share with the account used to call the operation in the specified AWS Region. 

```
$  aws ram list-principals \
    --region us-east-1 \
    --resource-owner OTHER-ACCOUNTS
{
    "principals": [
        {
            "id": "111111111111",
            "resourceShareArn": "arn:aws:ram:us-east-1:111111111111:resource-share/8b831ba0-63df-4608-be3c-19096b1ee16e",
            "creationTime": "2021-09-21T08:50:41.308000-07:00",
            "lastUpdatedTime": "2021-09-21T09:06:25.545000-07:00",
            "external": true
        }
    ]
}
```
