Camp Furniture
The Google product category ID for Camp Furniture is 1014. It sits under Camping & Hiking and has 3 subcategories of its own, so it is a predefined value you can send as it stands — but one of those 3 is usually the closer answer, and an interior category fits when a product genuinely spans the ones below.

Where this sits in the taxonomy
Measured by how much sits beneath them, Camp Furniture is second largest of the 18 categories under Camping & Hiking, with 3 categories below it.

Camp FurnitureAir Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories
The longest route down from here runs 1 more level, ending at Air Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories (4451) on level 5: Camp Furniture › Air Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories. Most branches stop sooner than that — the figure to compare it against is the seven levels Google's taxonomy allows, not the depth of the branch next door.

Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (1014) or the full path ("Sporting Goods > Outdoor Recreation > Camping & Hiking > Camp Furniture"). Both are predefined values for the same category. The ID is the sturdier of the two, because renaming any segment above this one changes the path text and leaves the number alone. Before sending it, check whether one of the 3 subcategories below fits — a narrower category groups the product with fewer, closer things.
Bear in mind that google_product_category is an optional attribute. Google assigns a category automatically, and your value is treated as a signal rather than an override. When an override actually applies.
In your feed, it looks like this
Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |
|---|---|---|
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | 1014 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Sporting Goods > Outdoor Recreation > Camping & Hiking > Camp Furniture |
This path has no comma, so an unquoted cell holds it as it stands — which is not true of every category in the taxonomy. The numeric ID, 1014, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
What sits under Camp Furniture
3 subcategories. A narrower category groups the product with fewer, closer things, so prefer one of these when it fits.
All 3 of them are leaves: none of the subcategories under Camp Furniture continues any further, so one of those 3 names is the most specific value this branch can give you.
Questions about Camp Furniture
What is the Google product category ID for Camp Furniture?
1014. The full path, "Sporting Goods > Outdoor Recreation > Camping & Hiking > Camp Furniture", is the same category written the other way. The ID is shorter, and renaming a segment above this one changes the path text while leaving the number alone.
Should I use Camp Furniture or one of its subcategories?
Prefer a subcategory when one fits: Camp Furniture has 3 directly below it, starting with Air Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories (4451), Air Mattresses (3695), Cots (3089), and 3 in total further down. 1014 is itself a predefined value, so an interior category is not an error — it just groups the product more broadly than a subcategory would.
Where does Camp Furniture sit in the taxonomy?
At level 4, under Camping & Hiking (1013). The chain from the top is Sporting Goods → Outdoor Recreation → Camping & Hiking → Camp Furniture. If your product does not belong under Camping & Hiking, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Camp Furniture is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Camping & Hiking first — there are 17 other categories at this level: Camping Cookware & Dinnerware (1016), Camping Lights & Lanterns (1019), Camping Tools (3937), Chemical Hand Warmers (3508), Compression Sacks (5636), Hiking Pole Accessories (7154), and 11 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Camping & Hiking (1013) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How much more specific can I get than Camp Furniture?
1 level more. The longest route down from Camp Furniture is Camp Furniture > Air Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories, ending at Air Mattress & Sleeping Pad Accessories (4451) on level 5. Not every branch below Camp Furniture runs that far, so the category that fits your product may stop earlier than this one does.
How big is Camp Furniture compared with the categories next to it?
It is second largest of the 18 at its level, carrying 3 categories below it. A bigger category is not a better one — it just means more of the taxonomy is still open below you after you pick it.
