ITunes Connect: Importing In-App Content via Application Loader: Unknown Price Level Error
I want to create a series of in-app purchases for my app in iTunesConnect via Application Loader. In theory, one could create a tab-delimited txt file with product IDs, price, etc. to bulk create in-app purchases.
Unfortunately, in practice, I cannot get it to work. My trial purchase in the app has an "option price level" of 32 and when I try to import data from a txt file the app loader gives me an error message: "Unknown price level: 32" (or something like this effect, the message I get in German).
This appears to be a bug in the app loader as the program even complains when I try to import the unmodified AppMassImportTemplate.txt template that comes with the app loader.
Likewise, the program does not accept an End Date of No, although this is the recommended entry in the Application Loader User Guide . But this, I can get around by simply omitting the End Date column, I cannot, however, omitting the Wholesale Price Level column.
Has anyone encountered this problem and found a way around this?

As it turned out, all I had to do was use an outdated version of the Application Loader. The current version is 3.1 and can be downloaded from the iTunesConnect site (in the Resources and Help section, not as noted in the App Downloader User Guide) in the My Apps section).
Download link: https://itunesconnect.apple.com//apploader/ApplicationLoader_3.1.dmg (you need to login to iTunesConnect for this link to work)
This link location can simply be changed to download the old version, for example:
- https://itunesconnect.apple.com//apploader/ApplicationLoader_3.0.dmg (it worked without difficulty for me)
- or change the value "3.0" to "2.9" if you need an older version)
Version 3.0 does not complain about the price level, although it still does not accept "No" as a valid "End Date", but as I said above, this column can be omitted altogether.
