Walmart Marketplace upload repair
Walmart error: value not in the closed list for this attribute
Applies to: MP_ITEM, MP_MAINTENANCE
What causes this error
Many Walmart attributes are 'closed lists' — only specific values are accepted. For example, Condition accepts only the exact spec value (e.g. 'New'). Any near-miss like 'new', 'Brand New', or 'NEW ' (trailing space) is rejected as not on the list.
How to fix it
Option A: fix it manually
- Identify the attribute named in the error and look up its acceptable values in the Item Spec.
- Match casing and spelling exactly — closed lists are case- and whitespace-sensitive.
- For multi-select attributes, separate values with the spec's delimiter, not commas of your own choosing.
- Replace your value with the exact accepted one and re-upload.
Option B: fix it automatically
This issue can be detected and prepared for automatic repair by the Walmart fixer.
