Walmart Marketplace upload repair
Walmart 5.0 change: Diet Type values updated or removed
Applies to: MP_ITEM, MP_MAINTENANCE
What causes this error
In the 4.x→5.0 migration, dietType's acceptable-value mapping changed and some prior values are no longer accepted. Food and grocery feeds that validated under 4.x get rejected on these values after migration.
How to fix it
Option A: fix it manually
- Pull the current dietType accepted values from the 5.0 spec for your product type.
- Map each old value to its 5.0 equivalent; drop values that were removed.
- Confirm multi-select formatting matches the spec delimiter.
- Re-upload with remapped values.
Option B: fix it automatically
This issue can be detected and prepared for automatic repair by the Walmart fixer.
