# vSphere Post-Processor
Type: `vsphere-upload`
The vSphere post-processor takes an artifact from the VMware builder
and uploads it to a vSphere endpoint.
## Configuration
There are many configuration options available for the post-processor. They are
segmented below into two categories: required and optional parameters. Within
each category, the available configuration keys are alphabetized.
Required:
* `datacenter` (string) - The name of the datacenter within vSphere to
add the VM to.
* `datastore` (string) - The name of the datastore to store this VM.
* `host` (string) - The vSphere host that will be contacted to perform
the VM upload.
* `password` (string) - Password to use to authenticate to the vSphere
endpoint.
* `path_to_resource_pool` (string) - The path within the resource pool to
store the VM.
* `username` (string) - The username to use to authenticate to the vSphere
endpoint.
* `vm_folder` (string) - The folder within the datastore to store the VM.
* `vm_name` (string) - The name of the VM once it is uploaded.
* `vm_network` (string) - The name of the VM network this VM will be
added to.
Optional:
* `insecure` (bool) - Whether or not the connection to vSphere can be done
over an insecure connection. By default this is false.
