Is there any way in which we can bulk upload product (variant) images and product specifications. The current way to upload/select image for every variant is too cumbersome.

                                                                                                            Since today Zoho is incredibly slow over all applications! What's going on?
                                                                                                          • How can I track which zoho users are actively using Zoho CRM

                                                                                                            I have several licenses of Zoho CRM. We now need to add a new user. I could purchase a new license, but before I do, I would like to see if any of our existing users are not actively using the license assigned to them. How can I determine the activity
