  • A summary of the issue
    When I upload the CSV I get the following error:

Some display types are invalid. They must be either "number" or "string" and should be the second row of your CSV before your data. Invalid display types found: Row: 2, Display Type: dummytoken1 Row: 3, Display Type: descr1 Row: 4, Display Type: uvco Row: 5, Display Type: “https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cVL2D93AtVZpthLMqPdA7yQTrSza-2Lq/view?usp=sharing” Row: 6, Display Type: “https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cVL2D93AtVZpthLMqPdA7yQTrSza-2Lq/view?usp=sharing”

Can you email your .csv to studio@manifold.xyz?

And in the meantime I have a few things to double check / try as our CSV upload is a little obtuse at the moment (we’re working to make the error readout more legible)

  1. Download template
  2. Do not change the first two rows. That is the one that has the names of the columns, and then the weird row that says like “string string string…”. Keep them both and add your data underneath starting at row 3!
  3. Ensure that in the animation_url row you put blank quotes for the cells that do not have an animation_url. So "" in that cell if there is to be no official animation_url, not just a blank cell.

That should help you avoid the most common pitfalls!

Okay #2 did it for me. I will keep trying. FYI if I retry after error in the UI it’s not using a locally updated file. I had to refresh the page after making changes to my file.

Updating our implementation today to make this a little less cumbersome, will continue make improvements over next week! Now you can leave that animation_url column fully blank and it works as expected.

Needing that second row of “string,string,string”… we’ll look into something more intuitive.
