FortiAnalyzer: Bulk change meta fields for devices

[Lachlan2]

Is there a way I can bulk update meta fields in FortiAnalyzer 7.2.2 with these meta fields already existing in FortiManager, e.g. for address. It is easy enough to export them from FMG but I am unsure on how to import this into FAZ.

Another question I have is if I can use these user defined meta fields in a dataset, where I could reference the meta field from "devid" or "devname"?

Hello,

I have found this documentation:

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortianalyzer/7.2.1/administration-guide/611929/meta-fields

Could you please indicate to me if it is helping?

I am aware of editing a device manually, however, I am wondering if this is possible to do via uploading an export of FMG or just with a .csv and bulk importing into FAZ. This way makes it much easier and efficient when handling several hundreds of devices. 
Thanks.
