From the device page — open the device (it shows the isn't reporting data yet banner), then ⋯ → Edit:

Devices › C9300
C9300  Cisco · Standalone
This device isn't reporting data yet

Open ⋯ → Edit to add its parameters. The device may still show as reachable, but it won't report data until they're set.

Once saved, the Missing Credentials flag clears and the device starts reporting — your confirmation it worked.
