Hello I want to import products from wholesales site, which give us his xml (url)... I need help, please...
Logically I should make the template based on our own data - template (fields) we want, I saw the guide here: https://rolandd.com/documentation/ro-csvi/import-xml
1) Question should I have made the categories in my eshop first?
2) Question should I make the manufacturer first?
3) Also very important the image will I import it from the url? (Also: https://rolandd.com/documentation/ro-csvi/virtuemart/can-i-use-picture-url-for-import)

Below I have sample xml (from the url)

<products>
<product>
<id>37897</id>
<sku>16897</sku>
<name>
<![CDATA[ LED KIT NAMEEE ]]>

Hello,
1) Question should I have made the categories in my eshop first?
2) Question should I make the manufacturer first?

With VirtueMart product import you don't need to create categories or manufacturer first. If the imported category or manufacturer does not exists it will be created on import and then product will be linked.

3) Also very important the image will I import it from the url? (Also: https://rolandd.com/documentation/ro-csvi/virtuemart/can-i-use-picture-url-for-import)

Yes you can import images from URL. Check Import VirtueMart images document for details. You can also read through VirtueMart Product import template Images tab document to know on each option on Images tab in import template.
Kind regards,

Tharuna
