Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (2446) or the full path ("Home & Garden > Household Supplies > Storage & Organization > Storage Hooks & Racks"). 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.

Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |

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, 2446, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.

Questions about Storage Hooks & Racks
What is the Google product category ID for Storage Hooks & Racks?
2446. The full path, "Home & Garden > Household Supplies > Storage & Organization > Storage Hooks & Racks", 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 Storage Hooks & Racks or one of its subcategories?
Prefer a subcategory when one fits: Storage Hooks & Racks has 3 directly below it, starting with Ironing Board Hooks & Racks (499930), Umbrella Stands & Racks (5494), Utility Hooks (5707), and 3 in total further down. 2446 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 Storage Hooks & Racks sit in the taxonomy?
At level 4, under Storage & Organization (636). The chain from the top is Home & Garden → Household Supplies → Storage & Organization → Storage Hooks & Racks. If your product does not belong under Storage & Organization, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Storage Hooks & Racks is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Storage & Organization first — there are 8 other categories at this level: Clothing & Closet Storage (5558), Flatware Chests (5128), Household Drawer Organizer Inserts (8058), Household Storage Bags (3561), Household Storage Caddies (6986), Household Storage Containers (5631), and 2 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Storage & Organization (636) 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 Storage Hooks & Racks?
1 level more. The longest route down from Storage Hooks & Racks is Storage Hooks & Racks > Ironing Board Hooks & Racks, ending at Ironing Board Hooks & Racks (499930) on level 5. Not every branch below Storage Hooks & Racks runs that far, so the category that fits your product may stop earlier than this one does.
How big is Storage Hooks & Racks compared with the categories next to it?
It is second largest of the 9 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.
