#### Step 3: Troubleshoot validation errors

You may see the following error messages when [creating or updating](/brand/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/platform-features/ads/create-ads/create-an-article-asset.md) your content ad. Here's what you can do to solve them:

| Validation error                  | Explanation                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
| --------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *“No replaceable links present”*  | impact.com cannot detect any replaceable links in the *Content* field—all links provided should use `http` (not `https`). Your links will later be automatically converted to `https` tracking links.                                                   |
| *“Ad name cannot be empty”*       | You must provide a name for your content ad. Input an appropriate name in the *Name* field.                                                                                                                                                             |
| *"URL on anchor is not absolute"* | The link you provided in the *Content* field isn't absolute. Absolute links use the entire path name, starting with `http://`. You may also want to check for syntax issues with the link you provided, such as spaces before or after the `href=` tag. |
| {% endstep %}                     |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| {% endstepper %}                  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
