Troubleshoot errors related to credentials

This section covers errors related to authentication and access rights for feed ingestion.

They usually occur when Criteo cannot authenticate to your feed source (FTP, SFTP, or protected HTTP feed) or is not authorized to access the configured file or directory.

Typical causes include invalid credentials, missing permissions, or IP whitelisting restrictions on the feed server.
