Troubleshoot Import and Upload Problems ​

If you encounter errors when importing or uploading files, try these steps:

Check file format ​

  1. Verify you're uploading the correct file type:
    • Products — CSV, XLS, XLSX
    • Assets — image or video files (PNG, JPG, JPEG, JPE, PSD, TIF, TIFF, EPS, EPT, GIF, AI, WEBP, SVG, AVIF)
    • Master briefings — CSV format
  2. If the file format is wrong, convert it and try again.

Check file size ​

  1. Large files may time out during upload.
  2. Try uploading a smaller batch or file.
  3. If your file is very large, contact your team administrator about size limits.

Check file content ​

  1. For product imports:
    • Verify required columns are present
    • Check that data matches field types (e.g., numbers aren't in text fields)
    • Verify no duplicate entries in unique fields
  2. For asset uploads:
    • Check that the file isn't corrupted
    • Verify the image dimensions are acceptable
  3. Review any error messages for specific problems.

Check internet connection ​

  1. A weak or interrupted connection can cause uploads to fail.
  2. Move closer to your router or switch to a wired connection if possible.
  3. Try the upload again.

Check permissions ​

  1. Verify you have permission to import or upload.
  2. Ask your team administrator if you need permission grants.

Retry with corrections ​

  1. Review the error message for what went wrong.
  2. Fix the issues in your file.
  3. Try uploading again.

Contact support ​

If the error persists:

  1. Note the error message.
  2. Try uploading from a different browser or device.
  3. Contact your team administrator or Relayter support with the error details.
