# How do I import or update multiple asset profiles at once?
## Export a CSV of your assets from My Assets \> Upload Profiles, edit it, and re-upload it to update several profiles in one go.
To update several asset profiles at once, export your assets as a CSV from **My Assets \> Upload Profiles**, edit the file, then re-upload it on the same page. This is faster than editing each profile individually when you have a lot of changes to make.
**Also known as / customers also ask:** bulk update assets, CSV import, import assets, bulk asset upload, update multiple vehicles, mass update asset profiles
## What you need before you start
- Access to **My Assets \> Upload Profiles**.
- Spreadsheet software that can save a file in CSV format.
## How do I import or update multiple asset profiles at once?
1. Go to **My Assets \> Upload Profiles**.
2. Select **Export Assets** to download a CSV of your current asset profiles. Alternatively, an information banner on this page offers an example CSV to download and fill in — if the banner isn't visible, refresh the page.
3. Open the CSV and add or edit the data under each existing column heading. Don't delete or change row one — the headings are what the importer matches your data against.
4. Save the file to your computer, keeping it in CSV format.
5. Back on the Upload Profiles page, select **Upload** and choose your edited CSV file.
6. Select the blue **Import File Now** button to save your changes.
## How do I know it worked?
The updated details appear against each affected asset in My Assets once the import completes.
## What if it doesn't work?
- **Import fails or rows are skipped:** check row one still has the original column headings — deleting or renaming them breaks the match between your data and the asset fields.
- **Not sure what belongs in a column:** see [what an asset profile is](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/what-is-an-asset-profile-and-what-can-i-do-with-it?hsLang=en-au) for what each profile field is used for.
This article doesn't cover updating a single asset's profile by hand — see [how to change the name of an asset](https://help.argustracking.co.nz/knowledge-base/how-do-i-change-the-name-of-an-asset?hsLang=en-au) and the related profile articles. If an import doesn't apply the way you expect, [contact Argus support](https://support.argustracking.com/new-request).
