hello - can anyone help me with what we need to do to create a credential to access our nutanix cluster prism central so we can leverage this collection?

This should achievable with the custom credential types feature, see the docs on how to set one up https://docs.ansible.com/automation-controller/latest/html/userguide/credential_types.html#custom-credential-types

let us know if you run into trouble getting it configured
