Check my CSV free →A comma or line break inside a description must be enclosed in quotation marks. A quotation mark inside a quoted value must be doubled. If one quote is missing, later columns may shift and Shopify can report the wrong row or field. Opening and saving the file in a spreadsheet can hide the underlying structure, so inspect the CSV records directly.
RowReady parses quoted multiline values, checks that records match the header width, and converts supported semicolon or tab-separated files to standard comma CSV. It rejects structurally ambiguous rows rather than deleting or guessing data.
