Drata error vendor criticality not synced from asset inventory
Complete solution
When it applies
- The workflow fails with this exact problem: Drata error vendor criticality not synced from asset inventory. - The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs. - A task in this workflow is blocked until this is resolved.
Reproduce the failure on one named vendor and record the full problem text plus the record involved. Verify: the asset inventory shows one criticality value for the vendor, Drata shows a different or blank value, and both are noted, so the failure is reproduced on demand.
Check the source of truth before changing anything. Verify: compare the vendor name, domain and criticality in the asset inventory against the Drata vendor record and against a similar vendor whose criticality synced correctly.
Check the sync mapping and scope. Verify: the criticality field in the inventory is mapped to the criticality field in Drata, the vendor is inside the sync scope, and the last sync run for this vendor completed without a skipped or unmatched note.
Apply the specific fix described in the TL;DR on that single vendor first. Verify: the single failing vendor now shows the correct criticality in Drata, or the corrected output is visible on the record.
Check neighbouring vendors from the same inventory import that share the same name or domain pattern, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
Rerun the sync on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the sync completes and the original problem does not appear on the corrected vendors.
Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the run log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the rerun result, and it is saved with the run.

Problem query: Drata error vendor criticality not synced from asset inventory
TL;DR: In Drata, vendor criticality does not sync from the asset inventory when the vendor name or domain in the inventory does not match the vendor record in Drata, when criticality is stored in a custom field that is not mapped in the sync, or when that vendor is outside the sync scope. Fix it by picking one vendor whose criticality differs, checking its name and domain match and the field mapping, correcting the match or mapping, then re-running the sync for that one vendor and confirming its criticality in Drata now matches the inventory before re-running the full sync.
