When I attempt to export a record directly to Alma, I get the host message, "Import failed. Reason: Error while validating the record."
Symptom
- When I attempt to export a record directly to Alma, I get the host message, "Import failed. Reason: Error while validating the record." The record is not exported to Alma.
Applies to
- Connexion
Resolution
That error message is coming directly from Alma. There is something about that record that Alma validation doesn't like, and it's not passing. You'll want to talk to the Alma admin and ask them to look at the import log right after you attempt an import. The log should include information to help troubleshoot the issue.
Additional information
You can validate the record in Connexion and export directly to your device if you'd like to confirm that the validation error is only occurring within Alma.
