Create External VM But No Item

I created a catalog item in ASD inside vRA which calls a workflow, and the workflow calls a script that connects to google api and creates a compute instance sucessfully based on the users input, however I'm missing what needs to be done and where it needs ot be done in order for me to create an object in vRA that the user can track and manage as well as create actions against it. So in short, everything works but there is no item in the items tab that would represent the new instance they just created. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am running vCO 5.5 and vRA 6.2.1 with no update in sight this quarter.

You'll need to look at using Resource Mappings in ASD to create manageable objects within vRA.

Have a read of this:

This explained a little bit about it but I can find no tutorials or walkthroughs explaining how to accomplish this. I created a custom resource and mapped it ot the workflow I was running but I still get no object created.
