***URGENT*** Getting Enum errors during Data Ingestion in AEP?

[MichaelJo13]

I just started a new project, and I noticed that the data ingestion is failing where all the error messages were related to enum values. For example, I got this error message: The message cannot be validated: [#/web/webInteraction/type: Tab Click is not a valid enum value]. I set this value directly in the Tags' Update Variable editor.

Why would I get this enum error? As mentioned, this is only one of multiple enum error messages I'm getting. Anyone have any idea? I've never had any issues like this before.

Thanks!

enums are set at the schema level within Adobe Experience Platform.  Enums will only allow specific values into an attribute.

It was my oversight. I didn't even realize that field automatically had enum set! Oh well, I'll go hide in the closet for a while and rethink life!

@MichaelJo13  - Interaction type will accept only the predefined Enum value, if no predefined Enum while ingesting the data then we may end up with this error. Please refer the below document. Even on the schema object only the given Enum value have been updated. So, it MUST be any of only those given value.
