@jessel yes, so on the webflow cms - I specified a dropdown with the category names this creates an error because the values on what we’re fetching from the rss may or may not have the same exact values it is grabbing. So, I simply removed that item as required on webflow cms and removed the dropdown and made it a simple text field.
Hope this helps! :)

Im almost positive that my validation error has to do with the required slug field but no matter what I change it to I cant seem to be able to resolve the validation issue.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
