# Microdata error: missing id

 * I have the Pixel Caffeine plugin version 2.1.4 running on WordPress 5.5.3 with
   WooCommerce 4.6.1 and I have the Facebook Pixel setup via the plugin. Everything
   shows that it is working and I can create an XML file for the Facebook catalog.
   But I keep getting an error that says:
 * “A required field is missing: id
    Products without “id” information can’t be 
   uploaded. Please check that this field is included for each product in a separate,
   labeled column.”
 * But when I look at the XML file it shows that the products do have an id:
 * <entry>
    <g:id>X05T20-1G19</g:id> <g:title> <![CDATA[ Smencils 5-Pack ]]> </g:
   title> <g:availability>in stock</g:availability> <g:price>6.99 USD</g:price> 
   <g:shipping_weight>0.1 lb</g:shipping_weight> <g:google_product_category>Toys&
   Games > Toys > Art & Drawing Toys</g:google_product_category> </entry>
 * I also get this message when trying to manually get the catalog to connect to
   the feed from my site in the Facebook Ads center:
 * “This pixel’s microdata is incomplete or incorrectly formatted
    To use this pixel
   to add or update items in your catalog, you need to install the required microdata
   tags on your website.”
 * I don’t see any options in the Pixel Caffeine plugin to make any changes to the
   microdata. Does anyone have a fix for this? Or is there a different plugin I 
   should be using that can fix this?
 * Thanks

 * many of us have the same issue. The fault is probably on Facebook side. I even
   tried with complete vanilla install of brand new WP and brand new WC + Storefront
   theme, and I get the same error.

 * Hi,
 * sorry for the delay here! Is this issue resolved? I don’t have this issue on 
   my local end and I fear it was a temporary issue from the Facebook API as said.
 * Let me know.

    If i try to import the catalog from pixel it says
   that microdata are not setting correctly or missing.
