To update your vCenter license inventory with the license keys details in your Customer Connect environment, generate a Products, Licenses, Details, and History .CSV file in your Customer Connect reports section. Upload the .CSV file to vSphere.

The .CSV file is a list of keys that are active keys in Customer Connect. The .CSV file contains up-to-date license keys information from your Customer Connect environment, including the account name and number, the product for which the license is purchased, the license quantity, various license key notes, the support level, the license support and license coverage end date, the order number, history data, and so on.
