Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (2363) or the full path ("Home & Garden > Kitchen & Dining > Barware > Coasters"). 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.
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 | 2363 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Home & Garden > Kitchen & Dining > Barware > Coasters |
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, 2363, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Questions about Coasters
What is the Google product category ID for Coasters?
2363. The full path, "Home & Garden > Kitchen & Dining > Barware > Coasters", 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.
Is anything more specific than Coasters available?
No. Coasters is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 4, so 2363 is the most precise value this branch offers. If it does not describe your product closely enough, the answer is a different branch, not a deeper one.
Where does Coasters sit in the taxonomy?
At level 4, under Barware (649). The chain from the top is Home & Garden → Kitchen & Dining → Barware → Coasters. If your product does not belong under Barware, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Coasters is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Barware first — there are 15 other categories at this level: Absinthe Fountains (7075), Beer Dispensers & Taps (1817), Beverage Chilling Cubes & Sticks (7569), Beverage Tubs & Chillers (505806), Bottle Caps (499990), Bottle Stoppers & Savers (4562), and 9 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Barware (649) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Coasters compared with the categories next to it?
It is fourth largest of the 16 at its level, carrying 0 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.
