# Perform a manual Shodan exploit import

If your initial import failed, or you do not want to wait for the scheduled initial import, you can perform a full data import independent of the daily scheduled job.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_vul.vulnerability\_admin or sn\_vul.admin \(deprecated\)

Persona and granular roles are available to help you manage what users and groups can see and do in the Vulnerability Response application. For an initial assignment of the persona roles in Setup Assistant, see [Assign the Vulnerability Response persona roles using Setup Assistant](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/vulnerability-response/vr-assign-personas_SA.md). For more information about managing granular roles, see [Manage persona and granular roles for Vulnerability Response](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/security-management/vulnerability-response/vr_manage_granular-roles.md).

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **Shodan Exploit Integration** > **Integrations**.

2.  Choose an integration.

3.  Select the **Full data import** check box.

4.  Click **Execute Now**.

    Once the import is complete, the check box is unchecked and delta imports resume.
