View all the commands required for an infrastructure or application pattern to verify you have sufficient permissions to run discovery.

## Before you begin

* Confirm that the following applications have been installed:
  * Pattern Designer Enhancements (sn_itom_pde)
  * Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns (sn_itom_pattern)
  {#view-command-pattern-discovery__ul_wnv_pjs_n2c}
* If you're viewing commands for the first time, have upgraded Discovery and Service Mapping Patterns, or have customized any pattern, refresh the command list by navigating to AllPattern DesignerCommand Validation ToolCommands List and selecting Refresh Command List.
{#view-command-pattern-discovery__ul_s45_j3c_m2c}

Role required: discovery_admin

## About this task

The discovery_admin role is required to access the Discovery Patterns module. Starting with Pattern Designer Enhancements version 3.9.0, the new pde_viewer role can view
pattern commands through the Command List module but can't edit or modify them. For more information, see [View Patterns commands through the Command List module](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/vMTxDCLIq35mRu6N6krExA "View and filter infrastructure or application pattern commands by various criteria, including pattern, CI type, or command, to confirm you have all the required permissions.").

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllPattern DesignerDiscovery Patterns.
2. In the Name field, search for the relevant pattern.
3. Select and hold (or right-click) the name of the pattern and select List Pattern Commands.

## Result

You're redirected to the Command List form filtered for the selected pattern.

For more information on the Command List form fields, see [Command List form for pattern-based discovery](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/1vUxkjdlPq3bHDKtKlc65A "The Command List form contains all commands used in discovery by infrastructure or application type patterns.").

Another common reason of command failure is that the IP addresses used for discovery aren’t reachable.")
