SQL Inventory Manager retrieves the majority of the metrics using SQL Scripts but retrieving performance metrics require the use of API calls.
There are two scenarios when discovering instances:
Scenario 1: Instance is discovered using cloud account. In this case, the account is already associated with this instance so API calls will be using this account
Scenario 2: Instance is not discovered, but added directly from add instance screen in this case, API calls will be using account details added via add instance wizard
