Overview

This guide explains how to export data from Bubble and import it into Xano, so you can take advantage of Xano’s scalable backend and API-first architecture.
By the end, your Xano database will contain the same records that powered your Bubble app.

​
CSV Import

​
1. Prepare Your Bubble Data

​
1.1 Identify Data Types

In your Bubble editor:
  1. Navigate to Data → Data Types.
  2. List each type (e.g., Users, Orders, Products) you plan to migrate.

​
1.2 Export as CSV

For each data type:
  1. Go to Data → App Data.
  2. Select the relevant data type from the dropdown.
  3. Click Export (CSV).
  4. Save the .csv file to your computer.
If you have privacy rules restricting access, ensure you have the proper permissions to export all records.

​
2. Import CSV Files into Xano

For each collection:
  1. Open the database in Xano.
  2. Click Add Table → Import Data → CSV Import.
  3. Upload the matching CSV file.
  4. Click Import and wait for the confirmation message.
If you have foreign key relationships (e.g., Orders → Users), these will need to be resolved either manually or with a workflow.
