warning INVALID_AGE_GROUP_VALUE

Invalid age_group value

What this means

age_group is not one of adult, all ages, teen, kids, toddler, infant, or newborn.

Why this happens

Meta Commerce Manager's product schema has format and value rules per attribute. This issue is typically: missing a required attribute for the category, an invalid enum value (e.g., 'XL' submitted where 'M, L, XL' is the valid set), out-of-range numbers, or attributes that conflict across the feed.

How to fix it

  1. Look up the affected attribute in Meta Commerce Manager's product data spec.
  2. Check whether the attribute is REQUIRED vs RECOMMENDED for your product category.
  3. For enum-style attributes (gender, age_group, condition), use ONLY documented values exactly (case-sensitive).
  4. For free-text attributes, stay within the character limit and avoid promotional language.
  5. Re-submit and check the next processing cycle.
