I am trying to create a listing with relationships, and posting here is my last resort. I am missing something simple I think and I am a bit too frustrated to see it. I have used CSV's to do single items with success, but this relationship thing is killing me. I even tried manually creating a listing with variants and then downloading the CSV to revise the listings, I thought that would give me the proper template, but when I copied what was there and uploaded I get 1 listing created and 56 failed listings. GAHHHH!!!
Here is my failure message x 55 more times:
I added the following and the message remains.
For ease I've truncated the list:
Info | Version=1.0.0 | Template=fx_category_template_EBAY_US | ||||||
*Action(SiteID=US|Country=US|Currency=USD|Version=1193|CC=UTF-8) | SiteID | CustomLabel | *Category | StoreCategory | *Title | Subtitle | Relationship | RelationshipDetails |
Add | US | Disney Infinity Toys to Life | 182180 | 1 | Disney Infinity 1.0, 2.0, 3.0. Toys To Life! | Characters=Aladdin 2.0;Anakin Skywalker 3.0;Ant-Man 3.0 | ||
Variation | Characters=Aladdin 2.0 | |||||||
Characters=Anakin Skywalker 3.0 | ||||||||
Characters=Ant-Man 3.0 |

Just saw that I didn't have "variant" on each of my names. Guess I had to post here to return to an objective point of view. I'd rather delete the whole post, but, whatevs.

I'll often create a question, and the simple process of spelling out that question focuses the mind on a solution that wasn't clear before. Glad you were able to see the problem in that CSV file.
One of the other common problems is a typo, or wrong delimiter or missing variation, in the master record. There is a feature at the bottom of this online tool to help with constructing that master record's "RelationshipDetails" field.
