    I am getting this message from my google search console, on all of my pages that I am using a Create Card.

    “Either “image” or “video” should be specified”

    It is coming from the instruction section of my “How To” cards. How do I fix this error?

    Hey there,

    Great question! The “Either ‘image’ or ‘video’ should be specified” message in GSC is actually a really common warning from How-To Schema, you’re getting this because Google would like to see a video or image for each step in your instructions. You can get rid of the warning by adding those images or videos into the steps, if you have them.

    Super important to keep in mind that errors and warnings in GSC are thankfully distinct, and while errors are emergent and in need of fixing, and warnings are more like suggestions! So you aren’t at all obligated to add in those images or videos, if you don’t wish to. If you’d like to read more about GSC errors and warnings, check out this blog post!
