How do I add a bulk policy exception or mitigation?

This can be done via the compliance view, or the inventory view, you need to navigate to the compliance resource page that lists out the problems for the resource in order to place a bulk policy exception or mitigation.

1.) From the Compliance problems page ensure that the problem you want to place a bulk policy exception on is expanded (In this example, we'll use "Pricing tier of security policy is not standard")


2.) Click "More information about this Check"
