For creating a global environment, you are prompted to install VMware Workspace ONE Access if you skipped this step when you initially installed VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle. To install VMware Workspace ONE Access, see Install VMware Workspace ONE Access in VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle. To import a VMware Aria Automation brownfield environment, verify that the VMware Workspace ONE Access in VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle matches the VMware Workspace ONE Access registered with VMware Aria Automation.

Use the same configuration admin user for both VMware Workspace ONE Access and VMware Aria Automation in VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle.
