Troubleshooting Issues

File Format Errors

  • We highly recommend using a tool to generate your files in the correct format, with quote-escaping around column values.
  • Verify that your files adhere to the agreed-upon format (OneRoster or custom).
  • Ensure consistent delimiters (e.g., commas for CSV files, tabs for TSV files).
  • Double check the number of columns against the number of headers to avoid misalignment.
  • Make sure you didn't change name of a previously uploaded and mapped file.

Missing Data

  • Check that all required fields (people, classes, enrollments) are included.
  • If enabling SSO, ensure emails and passwords are present in the file and that Password login is enabled in the source settings.

Duplicate or Invalid Entries

  • Ensure unique identifiers for entities to avoid duplication errors.
