Using this value

Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (2647) or the full path ("Vehicles & Parts > Vehicle Parts & Accessories > Vehicle Maintenance, Care & Decor > Vehicle Repair & Specialty Tools > Windshield Repair Kits"). 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.

This path contains a comma, so the cell has to be quoted: unquoted, a CSV reader splits "Vehicles & Parts > Vehicle Parts & Accessories > Vehicle Maintenance, Care & Decor > Vehicle Repair & Specialty Tools > Windshield Repair Kits" into 2 columns and the row stops lining up with its header. The numeric ID, 2647, contains no comma.

Questions about Windshield Repair Kits

What is the Google product category ID for Windshield Repair Kits?

2647. The full path, "Vehicles & Parts > Vehicle Parts & Accessories > Vehicle Maintenance, Care & Decor > Vehicle Repair & Specialty Tools > Windshield Repair Kits", 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 Windshield Repair Kits available?

No. Windshield Repair Kits is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 5, so 2647 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 Windshield Repair Kits sit in the taxonomy?
