Does bonanza support volusion database csv files as an import option?
Upvote this question 0 Downvote this question

I have a website on Volusion Platform. It exports the entire database of 532 items as a CSV file. However, I don’t know how to translate its categories & such into something that Bonanza would recognize. Does anyone know how to do this, or have experience with this? Also, all my images are stored on the Volusion website. How do I make them available for Bonanza? Is any of this even possible?

As long as you can get a CSV file, you can import the items in to Bonanza. Regarding the photos, you bring those over on the CSV file using the direct link to the actual photo stored on Volusion’s servers. It can’t be a link to a webpage, it has to directly link to the photo itself.

This help file from Bonanza should get you started. It can be as simple as changing the “headers” (columns) on your CSV spreadsheet to match the names that Bonanza uses for their import of your data. You can also “map” your columns to Bonanza columns in the spreadsheet. In other words tell Volusion column A to go into Bonanza column B, etc.
