HCP Packer connection

The HCP Packer connection connects your HCP Packer data to the resource graph.

Set up the connection

4. Click Create connection.

Sync HCP Packer data

The HCP Packer connection automatically scans every HCP Packer registry in your HCP organization every 30 minutes, however it does not update your inventory until you manually sync the connection. When you first create the HCP Packer connection, it may take up to 30 minutes for Infragraph to populate your inventory with data from HCP Packer.

To find the current sync status for your HCP Packer data:

1. Click Connections in your HCP organization's left navigation panel.

2. Check the HCP Packer connection sync status.

   • Awaiting initial sync means that the connection was created but the first data sync does not initiated.
   • Successful means there were no errors in the latest sync and the data was synced.
   • Partial failure means at least one error occurred in the latest sync.

To manually initiate a new sync, next to the Data source, under Actions, click … and then select Sync connection.
