  RAF        → Rafalleo

  Total: 2 brands

Social Media Channels
--------------------------------------------------

  facebook_paid:
    FBD        → FB - Biz Disco Feed (publisher=facebook, placement=biz_disco_feed)
    FBS        → FB - Stories (publisher=facebook, placement=facebook_stories)

  Total: 70+ social media codes

2. Test Example Filenames

python scripts/validate_mappings.py --test-examples

This will test:

• NUT_GL_en_MOMENT_OLV_6S_1x1_FBS_xyz.mp4
• RAF_IT_it_LUXURY_OLV_15S_16x9_IGF_abc.mp4
• NUT_DE_de_BREAKFAST_OLV_10S_9x16_YTS_def.mp4

Expected: All should pass ✓

3. Test Your Own File

python scripts/validate_mappings.py --test-file /path/to/your/test_file.mp4

Example output:

Parsing: NUT_GL_en_MOMENT_OLV_6S_1x1_FBS_xyz.mp4
--------------------------------------------------
  ✓ Parsed successfully
    Brand:    NUT → NUTELLA
    Country:  GL → GLOBAL
    Language: en
    Channel:  FBS → FB - Stories
    Subject:  MOMENT
    Duration: 6S
    Ratio:    1x1

Summary
--------------------------------------------------
  ✓ File is valid and ready for upload
  ✓ Filename parsed successfully
  ✓ All Creative X mappings valid

4. Dry Run Upload Test

python scripts/upload.py --dry-run /path/to/test_file.mp4

This will:

1. Parse filename ✓
2. Validate file ✓
3. Validate metadata ✓
4. Validate mappings ✓
5. Show what would be sent to Creative X
6. NOT actually upload

---

What to Validate

1. Check Brand Mappings

• ✅ NUT (Nutella) - verify ID 423 is correct
• ✅ RAF (Raffaello/Rafalleo) - verify ID 422 is correct and spelling

2. Check Channel Mappings

Test a few key channels:

• Facebook Stories (FBS)
• Instagram Feed (IGF)
• Instagram Reels (IGR)
• YouTube Shorts (YTS)
• TikTok (TIK)

3. Check Special Cases

• GL = Global (not Greenland) ✓
• YouTube formats (Bumper vs Shorts vs In-Stream) ✓

4. Identify Missing Mappings

If you have social codes in data.json that aren't in mappings.json, we need to add them.

Quick check:

# Show all Ferrero social codes
grep -A 1 "social_media_versions" data.json

# Compare with mapped codes
python scripts/validate_mappings.py --show-supported | grep "Total:"

---

Next Steps After Validation

1. If Mappings Look Good

Test with real upload:

# Upload a test file (Nutella or Raffaello)
python scripts/upload.py /path/to/NUT_GL_en_TEST_OLV_6S_1x1_FBS_test.mp4

# Check status
python scripts/check_status.py --summary

2. If Mappings Need Adjustments

Edit mappings.json:

• Fix brand IDs if wrong
• Fix channel/publisher/placement combinations
• Add missing social codes

Then re-test:

python scripts/validate_mappings.py --test-examples

3. Add More Brands

When Creative X adds more brands:

# Check new brands
python get_dimensions.py | grep -A 5 "brands"

# Add to mappings.json
nano mappings.json

Example:

{
  "brand_mappings": {
    "ROC": {
      "creativex_name": "Ferrero Rocher",
      "creativex_id": 424,
      "ferrero_name": "ROCHER"
    }
  }
}

4. Add Missing Social Codes

If validation shows unmapped codes:

1. Query Creative X: python get_dimensions.py
2. Find the correct channel structure
3. Add to mappings.json under appropriate category
4. Test: python scripts/validate_mappings.py --show-supported

---

Troubleshooting

"Brand 'XXX' is not supported"

Fix: Add to mappings.json under brand_mappings

"Social media code 'XXX' not mapped"

Fix: Add to mappings.json under channel_mappings (choose correct category)

"Invalid placement"

Fix: Verify placement name from python get_dimensions.py and update mapping

Validation passes but upload fails

Check:

1. API credentials in .env
2. Network connectivity
3. Creative X API status
4. Logs: cat data/logs/creativex_upload_*.log
