+=== Bulk assign asset criticality
+
+You can bulk assign asset criticality to multiple entities by importing a CSV, TXT or TSV file from your asset management tools.
+
+The file must contain three columns, with each entity record listed on a separate row:
+
+. The first column should indicate whether the entity is a `host` or a `user`.
+. The second column should specify the entity's `host.name` or `user.name`.
+. The third column should specify one of the following asset criticality levels:
+** `extreme_impact`
+** `high_impact`
+** `medium_impact`
+** `low_impact`
+
+The maximum file size is 1 MB.
+
+File structure example:
+
+[source,txt]
+--------------------------------------------------
+user,user-001,low_impact
+user,user-002,medium_impact
+host,host-001,extreme_impact
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+To import a file:
+
+. Go to **Manage** → **Asset criticality**.
+. Select or drag and drop the file you want to import.
++
+NOTE: The file validation step highlights any lines that don't follow the required file structure. The asset criticality levels for those entities won't be assigned. We recommend that you fix any invalid lines and re-upload the file.
+. Click **Assign**. 
+
+This process overwrites any previously assigned asset criticality levels for the entities included in the imported file. The newly assigned or updated asset criticality levels are immediately visible within all asset criticality workflows and will impact entity risk scores during the next risk scoring calculation.
