Fix: Missing field "image" (Article / Product / LocalBusiness)

“Missing field "image"”

What this means

The entity is missing an image property. For Article rich results image is effectively required; for Product and LocalBusiness it's strongly recommended.

Why it happens

The page's featured image isn't wired into the schema output, or the entity was generated from a template without one.

How to fix it manually

Add an image property pointing at a real, crawlable image URL on your site (your featured/hero image is usually right).

Or scan your page and get the corrected code

Paste your URL and see every error, warning, and conflict on the page — free. If you want it fixed, we generate one clean, validated, paste-ready schema block that resolves this error and any others, harmonized with what's already on your page.
