The user will be given an error message and required to fix their csv file if:

the RRID, ORCID, and Uniprot ID do not exist,
there are missing files in the pdf upload listed in the .csv, or if a .pdf file (e.g., with a .pdf extension) cannot be parsed as a pdf file,
the number of columns are not correct in the csv files and the headings are not correct,
boolean values are not true and false.

The metadata TSV validation is based on https://specs.frictionlessdata.io/table-schema/ and we have been pretty happy with it. I don't know if there are constraints you'd like to apply beyond required field checks; May be overkill.
