Error: Inventory is auto assigning to a former person

  • Updated

When resources are synced Vanta will automatically assign the owner as the user who connected the integration by default.

Option A

The user you want these resources to auto-assign to can reconnect the affected integration (AWS/GCP). If you do go this route, please make sure not to delete the integration but only reconnect. Deleting the connection may have adverse effects.

To reconnect:

    • From the Integrations Page, select Manage then Edit next to your Cloud integration
    • Click Add New Account/Project 
    • From here, you can go through the process of re-adding the same account. This will update the default user to the most recent user who reconnects the integration.

Option B

  • Use bulk tags to automatically tag synced cloud resources. This process will enable you to update the owner directly in your Cloud environment if necessary. Please see our help article, which goes over Bulk Tags in more detail. 

If you encounter any issues with these solutions, please email support@vanta.com. We are here to help.
