Install the third-party integration applications you have entitlement for in Vulnerability Response using the Setup Assistant.

## Before you begin

Setup Assistant supports the installation of most third-party integration applications with Vulnerability Response, but you continue with the configuration for some applications you install from configuration modules in your instance. See [Vulnerability Response integrations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/5tRtjEBZLs~2Uym3WljEBw "Vulnerability Response includes support for third-party integrations. Included in this section are some basic guidelines for developing your own integrations.") for a list of applications that are supported by Vulnerability Response.  
Note:  
This process applies only to applications that are downloaded to production instances. If you're downloading applications to non-production or development instances, it's not necessary to get entitlements. Proceed to [Activate a ServiceNow Store application](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/RFo48XO5_M32aNft7_tP2A "After an application has been given entitlement, you must activate its dependencies plugin and activate the application. This process also applies to applications downloaded to sub-production instances.").

* After it is installed, the Vulnerability Solution Management feature of Vulnerability Response provides you access to the Microsoft Security Response Center Solution Integration and the Red Hat Solution Integration in Setup Assistant.
* Vulnerability Solution Management is available by separate subscription. See [Vulnerability Solution Management](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/4~jL5ap2RRdZ3gYosfm3rg "Vulnerability Solution Management automates the correlation of vulnerabilities in your environment with the solutions that can remediate them. It identifies the patches, configuration updates, and controls with the highest impact for your organization, eliminating the need for manual research.") for more information on how Vulnerability Response incorporates solutions.

{#vr-installapp-setup-asst__ul_mf5_ttr_qnb}  
Before you can install and activate third-party applications from Setup Assistant, perform the following tasks to ensure a smooth installation:{#vr-installapp-setup-asst__table_q13_dgf_4mb__entry__2}

| Setup Tasks | Description |
|-|-|
| Verify that you have valid ServiceNow entitlements for the integration applications that you want to install. | Navigate to Subscription ManagementSubscriptions in your instance to verify entitlements. The list displays the subscriptions your organization has purchased. For more information about getting entitlements for a Security Operations application from the ServiceNow Store, see [Get entitlement for a Security Operations product or application](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/ZZVMDPCDs~BwBGv0OAhjuA "The first step in installing a Security Operations application is to verify that the application or the product and its associated applications have valid ServiceNow entitlements."). |
| (Optional) If not already installed and activated, you may prefer to install the Vulnerability Response application prior to installing the third-party application. | For more information about installing and activating the Vulnerability Response application, see, [Install and configure Vulnerability Response](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/sB5D1~3XOF2DyOX7hmc5dA "Before you run the Vulnerability Response application in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance, you must get entitlement and download the application from the ServiceNow Store, install it on your ServiceNow AI Platform instance, and activate it."). |
| If not already installed and activated, you must activate and import vulnerability data with the NVD Integration and CWE scheduled job prior to running a third-party scanner application to import data. | Run the NVD and CWE integrations as part of your initial setup of Vulnerability Response and prior to importing vulnerability data into your instance with a third-party scanner product. See [Understanding the NVD integrations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/eFiXOlP4oTeyfPz4Q0roQA "The NVD integrations use data imported from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) National Vulnerability Database (NVD) product to help you determine the impact and priority of flaws in your code. Run this integration as part of your initial setup of Vulnerability Response and prior to importing vulnerability data into your instance with a third-party scanner product.") for more information. |
| Verify you have completed any setup tasks required for the third-party integrations for Vulnerability Response. | Review any required setup tasks for each integration that you want to install at [Vulnerability Response integrations](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/5tRtjEBZLs~2Uym3WljEBw "Vulnerability Response includes support for third-party integrations. Included in this section are some basic guidelines for developing your own integrations."). |

   For other applications not listed above, navigate directly to the configuration module of the application to continue with the configuration and to enter any required third-party credentials. For example, the following
   image shows the location of the Configuration and module for the Rapid7 application.

   For more information about configuring specific applications, see the installation and configuration product documentation by product name provided for each application.

## What to do next

Continue with the configuration of your application in Setup Assistant if your
application is supported.

If your application is not supported for configuration in Setup Assistant, navigate
directly to the configuration module of the application to continue with the
configuration. To view supported applications in Setup Assistant, see, [Installation of Vulnerability Response and supported applications](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/GzpmA3jC6SarZ6vCvXGm4g "The Vulnerability Response application is available from the ServiceNow Store. The application supports other ServiceNow applications and third-party integrations that you also download from the ServiceNow Store. More options also are available to extend the basic setup.").
