Hi there,  
I’m new here.

I’m creating an online bookstore and I need to import the whole catalogue of books I’ve from my distributor (gardners) to my shopify website.

I don’t know if there is a faster or better way to do it, but I don’t know it myself, so I’ll tell you what I’m trying to do and where I need help. If you know another faster and better way to do this task please let me know because you would help me a lot because then I will have problems…

First of all I download a csv file with all the isbn from Gardners and at the same time I have a premium subscription in isbndb to get the data of the book like cover, descriptions, etc as gardners only gives me isbn author and price…

As I don’t want to go one by one I have seen that using parabola I can use the api and get all this automatically. I have seen in the forum a post of a user that gives a script to automate this but it gives me failure.

([API - Pull Book Details from ISBNdb into Shopify Store](https://community.parabola.io/t/api-pull-book-details-from-isbndb-into-shopify-store/1987))

my error is

and what I have done so far is this

what I’m doing wrong?

and once I get all the data I need (author, cover, description), how can I automate the uploading to my catalogue and how can I make the price I have in the gardners csv be linked too?

THANKS SO MUCH!!!
