Export Findings or Assets

You can export data from the Findings and Assets workbenches to CSV or JSON. While these workbenches contain different data, the basic export process is the same.

To export findings or assets:

  1. Do one of the following:
    • In the left navigation, click Findings.

      The Findings workbench appears.

    • In the left navigation, click Assets.

      The Assets workbench appears.

  2. In the left navigation plane, under Explore, do one of the following:

    • To export your organization's scanned vulnerability findings, click Findings.

      The Findings workbench appears.

    • To export your organization's scanned assets, click Assets.

      The Assets workbench appears.

  3. Refine the displayed data, as described in Use Filters.

    Note: On the Findings workbench, when using the Group By filter, you can only export five findings at a time.

    Note: On the Assets workbench, the Asset ID, Last Authenticated Scan, Last Licensed Scan, and Source fields are required.

  4. Select the check boxs next to the findings or assets to export.

    Note: You can manually select up to 200 findings or assets. Otherwise, you must select them all.

  5. In the action bar, click Export.

    The Export plane appears.

    Option Description

    Name

    Type a name for the export.
    Formats

    Select an export format:

    • CSV – A CSV file that you can open in a spreadsheet application such as Microsoft Excel.

      Note: For findings exports, the system automatically trims cells longer than 32,000 characters so they appear correctly in Microsoft Excel. Select Untruncated Data to disable this.

      Note: If your export file contains a cell starting with any of the following characters (=, +, -, @), the system adds a single quote (') at the beginning of the cell. For more information, see the Knowledge Base.
    • JSON – A JSON file containing a nested list of findings, with no empty fields.

    Configurations

    Select the fields to include:

    • Under Select Field Set, search for or select the fields to add to your export.

    • To view only selected fields, click View Selected.

    • In the Expiration box, type the number of days before the export file ages out.

    Note: In asset exports, Asset ID, Last Authenticated Scan, Last Licensed Scan, and Source are required.

    Schedule

    Turn on the Schedule toggle to schedule your export:

    1. In the Start Date and Time section, choose the date and time for the export.
    2. In the Time Zone drop-down, choose a time zone.
    3. In the Repeat drop-down, choose the cadence on which you want the export to repeat (for example, daily).
    4. In the Repeat Ends drop-down, choose the date when exports end. If you select Never, the export repeats until you modify or delete it.
    Email Notifications

    Turn on the Email Notification toggle to send email notifications:

    1. In the Add Recipients box, type the emails to notify.
    2. In the Password box, type a password for the export file. Share this password with the recipients so they can download the export file.
  6. Click Export.

    Depending on size, the export file may take several minutes to process. When processing completes, the file downloads to your computer.

    Tip: If you close the Export plane before the download completes, you can access the completed export file in Settings > Exports.
