Hi there,

I have a (Rapido) feed that raises the following exception when requested from the URL in the backend. Looks like it's unhappy about the VariantCombinations property. Where do I change this to make it happy? Or is this a bug? Running on 9.9.7 if that helps...

Hi Imar and Mikkel

The problem looks like that old names are stored for properties that is no longer valid.
It should fix the problem to remove all product properties in the feed, save, and then add them again.

Kind Regards

Thanks Kristian. That works on the feeds I tested it on! 

Is this considered a bug? A better error message would be helpful.

Better than this?

Some property names do not match the viewmodel ('Dynamicweb.Ecommerce.ProductCatalog.ProductViewModel'): Invalid input=[Images, VariantCombinations]

Yes, better than that as it tells you what might be broken, but not how to fix it. This could have just as easy be an internal issue with the ViewModel or so, and it gave no hint at removing and readding the properties.
