Creating snapshots - using a catalog item

[ShilpaNagaraja]

Hi All,

I'm trying to create a Catalog item which takes in the VM name(Input field) and use vRO workflow " create a snapshot" to create a snapshot -Using custom resources. Is this the right way to do or any inputs are greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

If you are looking for a way to execute the workflow from vRA, then you need to go to Service Broker / Content Sources, add new source y find the Orchestrator's Workflow.

Custom Resources are used if you want to create an XaaS item that remains in vRA console so you can execute day 2 actions.
