Ingesting Findings
Use VRM - CSV Import to load finding or asset CSV files, or send findings through a scanner playbook that writes the same ingestion pages.

Import Findings from CSV
- In the VRM - Utilities workspace, open VRM - CSV Import.
- Create a record and open the Finding Import tab.
- Under CSV Inputs, attach the file to Finding CSV File.
- Set Finding Page Size. The recommended value is 5000.
- Set Finding Source. The value must match the source configured in VRM - Map Raw JSON to TEDS Findings. The package includes Demo.
- Click Ingest Finding CSV.
- Under CSV Import Results, confirm Finding Rows Ingested and Ingestion Pages Written.
- Review the created VRM - Ingestion Page records.
Field | Use |
|---|---|
Finding CSV File | CSV file of raw vulnerability findings from a scanner. |
Finding Page Size | How many raw findings each VRM - Ingestion Page record stores. Recommended: 5000. |
Finding Source | Routes the page to the matching TEDS mapping. Must match the source in VRM - Map Raw JSON to TEDS Findings. |
Finding Rows Ingested | Count of rows accepted from the file. |
Ingestion Pages Written | When the last page-write completed. |
Use Demo CSV Generation on the same tab to create a sample finding CSV, then click Generate Demo CSV File.
Import Assets from CSV
- In the VRM - Utilities workspace, open VRM - CSV Import.
- Create a record and open the Asset Import tab.
- Attach the asset CSV file.
- Click Ingest Asset CSV.
- Confirm Asset Rows Ingested.
Ingest from a Connector or API
Scheduled scanner playbooks or webhooks fetch findings from an integrated source, transform them into the ingestion-page format, and write VRM - Ingestion Page records. From that point, staged enrichment treats those pages the same as CSV pages.
Request scanner-specific ingestion playbooks from your Swimlane representative. See Installing and Configuring.
Next Steps
- Review Creating Ingestion Pages to confirm page status.
- Review Processing and Enrichment after pages are queued.
