Use Vulnerability Assignment Recommendations to view the assignment group recommendations for multiple vulnerable items (VIs) using a bulk edit. When multiple VIs are selected, a prediction is performed on a random sample of the selected
VIs.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_vul.remediation_owner

## About this task

The recommendations and their confidence scores may differ slightly between invocations, based on the samples taken from the selected VIs. The confidence score evaluates whether the system is confident that the recommended assignment group is suited to resolve the vulnerability. Use the `assignment_recommendation_batchsize` system property to set the batch size when you request Vulnerability Assignment Recommendations for remediation tasks (VULs) and VIs using the bulk edit option. The default value of this system property is set for optimum prediction performance.  
Note:  
If you increase the default value, the response time for Vulnerability Assignment Recommendations for these cases might change.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllVulnerability ResponseVulnerable Item and select multiple VIs.  
   The items must be in the Open, Under investigation, or Awaiting implementation state.
2. Click Bulk Edit.
3. On the form, fill in the fields.  
   {#ml-request-bulk-edit-vis__table_i5w_fcy_4lb__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |

   | Record selection | Records to be selected for bulk edit. |
   | Assignment group | Assignment group to set for the selected vulnerable items. To view the recommended assignment groups, click the recommend icon (![Recommend icon.]()) next to the field. Select a recommendation that is based on the confidence score and click Assign. |
