warning INVALID_PRODUCT_CONDITION

Invalid product condition

What this means

CAT_VALIDATION_ERROR_PRODUCT_CONDITION_INVALID fires when condition is missing or not one of NEW, REFURBISHED, or USED. Free-text descriptions like 'like new' or 'open box' are rejected.

Why this happens

Snap Catalog 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 Snap Catalog 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.
