Import from Art Record

To export your data from Art Record, visit the settings page, and choose Download Entire Archive, which will direct you to the data export page. You can make a request, and after a day or so, you’ll receive a zip file with all your data.

You can import that ZIP file into Valise. Art Record imports are the most comprehensive — they bring in artworks, contacts, collections, presentations (exhibitions), sales, locations, and tags. Images and documents from the export are also imported.

Limitations

• Art Record’s edition information is free-form text, so it’s stored in the artwork’s notes field rather than as structured edition records.
• For sales of editioned works, we can’t determine which specific edition was sold, so artwork titles are recorded in the sale notes instead.
• PDF files attached as images in Art Record are moved to the documents section during import.
