Connect your cloud accounts
Each account is a source of inventory. Use read-only credentials: nothing in the app needs write access. Provider-specific steps are on the Providers pages.

Adding an account
- Provider and name
- Choose where the account lives and a friendly name, such as Production or Staging.
- Monitoring
- Leave it enabled to start collecting as soon as the credentials are verified. You can pause it later.
- Credentials
- Saving stores the credentials and tests the connection straight away. You can verify again at any time.
Reading the accounts list
- Status badges
- Whether the account is active and verified. Other badges flag billing roles (Payer, Linked), cost reports enabled (CUR on) and the number of permission problems detected.
- Last inventory sync
- Green is recent, orange is stale and grey means it was never collected.
- Resources
- How many resources were found at the last sync, not counting the ones that no longer exist.
Day to day
- Sync now
- Collects the inventory right away instead of waiting for the next scheduled run.
- Permission problems
- Calls the credentials were not allowed to make. Fix the permissions at the provider, then use Re-check.
- Pause
- Untick Active in General to stop monitoring without deleting the account or losing its history.
- Removed resources
- A resource not found in the latest sync is marked stale and left out of the analysis and recommendations. It is cleaned up automatically if it comes back.
