Import Targets to Discovery

Adding multiple targets to the Discovery Manager manually can be time-consuming. Streamline this process by using vScope’s API to import targets through a CSV file.

Importing Targets via the API

Follow these steps to import targets quickly:

Prepare a CSV File for Target Import

  1. Create a CSV File
    Your CSV file should have:

    • One column for the IP range.
    • One column for an optional Note associated with each target.

  1. Upload the CSV File
  • Navigate to the API section for target import.
  • Upload the prepared CSV file.
  • (Optional) Add notes to each target if you wish to document specific details about certain IP ranges.
