Importing third party usernames and passwords

I'm a new Mac user and would like to switch to using Keychain for usernames and passwords. I've used Dashlane for years, and have hundreds of usernames and passwords that I'd like to move in bulk. I can export my Dashlane file into CSV, JSON, and even a DASH file, but can't seem to figure out how to import a non-iOS file into Keychain. Anyone have a bright idea?

OK, so I figured it out. You have to go through Safari, not Keychain. I downloaded my Dashlane file into a CSV, then deleted all non-username/password data in the csv (personal info, CC's, notes, etc). From there, I updated headers to the following: "url", "username", "password". Make sure the url is the full address to include https: //www.<yourwebsitehere>.<whatever>. I then imported to Chrome using this method before quitting Chrome. From there, I was able to import to Safari by opening Safari and using the File>Import From>Google Chrome option. After letting that run, passwords were in Safari as well as Keychain.
