Help: Getting error adding StoreCategory to the create new listing template

[fredspremiumcloset]

I thought the correct header is StoreCategory. And the correct value for it was found on Seller Hub>Store>Store Categories>Category number (right hand side of screen).

I am getting error code 37. Error - Input data for tag <Item.Storefront.StoreCategoryID> is invalid or missing. Please check API documentation.|Item.Storefront.StoreCategoryID|

I tried StoreCategoryID header but still the same error.

The template I'm using is the .xlsx version of the 10 category create new listing template.

Are you entering the category name or the number? I think you're indicating you're using the number, which should be the correct way to do it, I just wanted to confirm.

You may have more success posting this on the Developer Forums section of these forums, that's where people expect to see posts related to the API: https://community.ebay.com/t5/Developer-Forums/ct-p/developergroup

I started a new thread in the Developer section. https://community.ebay.com/t5/eBay-APIs-Talk-to-your-fellow/Error-entering-StoreCategory-value-in-Se...

I see when I manually enter the value, it works. But when my formula retrieves that same value, it fails.

Sounds like when it's exporting when you use the formatting, it's retaining something more than just the static value.  If you want to use a formula, just convert it to a static value before you export, maybe?
