Inventory items that exist outside of the services you have integrated in Vanta can be manually added individually or through a bulk upload. The bulk upload process allows you to save time and add multiple items simultaneously rather than one by one.

Bulk Uploading Inventory Items

  • From the left-hand navigation panel, select Inventory

  • Select All Custom Items

  • Select the Add Item button from the top right-hand corner and choose Import Custom Items
