The JSON data containing your resume is validated before importing. If you inspect the JSON file manually, you'll find that the first entry under Certifications either doesn't have a URL field, the field is empty, or it has an incorrect URL. When importing my Linkedin yeterday (using just the JSON) file I needed to fix a few things manually 😉

Is it only need to fix certifications json file ?

I had a similar issue. My certifications.csv file was missing the URL from 2 of the entries/lines.

The fix: Unzip the file, edit the certifications.csv file and enter real (or placeholder) data for the URLs, re-zip the archive.

It depends on what errors you're seeing. If (in the error output) you're only seeing a path name of "Certifications", then yes.

Disclaimer: I am a new user of RxResume, but based on the docs and my experience so far, this appears to be correct.

Had the same error. inspected the csv file found one of the certs had the URL start with http://so.. Changing The URL from http:// to https:// seems to make the validation error go away @gnaomo BUT.. :) whenever I import the ZIP file it's always just blank... 😞 I will post my final thoughts on this web-app in an another issue to not hog this thread and waste someone's time.

(Update: Already Did, and here is an archived one, just in-case if it got deleted 😺)
