When you upload a CSV, ChannelGuard validates each row and shows a preview. Rows with errors appear in red.
Common Errors
Error | Cause | Fix |
Missing required field | name, sku, or mapPrice column is empty | Fill in all required columns for each row |
Invalid price format | mapPrice contains $ symbol or text | Use numbers only (e.g., 29.99 not $29.99) |
Encoding issues / garbled text | CSV not saved as UTF-8 | Re-save the file as UTF-8 in your spreadsheet app |
Columns not detected | Wrong delimiter or header names | Use commas as delimiters. Download the template for correct header names. |
Tips
