Google App - reported errors "Invalid Attribute Value [image link]"

Shopify Apps
,

Topic summary

Users are encountering two distinct error types in the Google Merchant Center affecting product listings:

Image Link Errors:

  • Products show “Invalid Attribute Value [image link]” in the Google app, though images display correctly on websites and in Google search results.
  • Google requires specific image formats (JPEG, WebP, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF) and accessible URLs.
  • Potential causes include robots.txt file blocking image directories or URL accessibility issues.
  • This error may prevent products from appearing in Google Shopping.
  • Status: No clear resolution provided in the thread.

Unit Pricing Measure Errors:

  • Hundreds of products flagged with “Invalid whole number [unit pricing base measure]” and “Invalid real number [unit pricing measure]”.
  • Google recently changed these previously optional fields to required.
  • Working Solution: Create feed rules in Google Merchant Center:
    • Navigate to Products > Feeds > Content API > Feed Rules
    • Add rules for both unit_pricing_measure and unit_pricing_base_measure
    • Set both values to “1ct” for items sold per unit
    • Test changes before applying
  • Users report that updating values directly in Shopify doesn’t resolve the error; changes must be made in Merchant Center via feed rules.
  • Status: Resolved for users who implemented the feed rule solution.

product liquid, this is the updated one, add measure,

just be sure to understand that this code is only if you sell single items that are not measured by size/weight ect… Oz of a soda, length of a rope, sf of concrete ect. if you sell things like that you will have to use Metafields to populate for google.
