Switching from Dealer Spike
There is no live connection to Dealer Spike: data moves from export files (CSV, XML or JSON) through the migration center, which maps the columns, runs a dry run with duplicate checks, and can roll a run back while its records are untouched.
No Dealer Spike-specific mapping is included; you map each export column once and can save the mapping for the next file.
