Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (3766) or the full path ("Sporting Goods > Indoor Games > Throwing Darts > Dart Parts > Dart Flights"). 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.

Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |
|---|---|---|
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | 3766 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Sporting Goods > Indoor Games > Throwing Darts > Dart Parts > Dart Flights |
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, 3766, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.

These sit under the same parent and start with the same word, which is exactly when the wrong one gets picked.
Questions about Dart Flights
What is the Google product category ID for Dart Flights?
3766. The full path, "Sporting Goods > Indoor Games > Throwing Darts > Dart Parts > Dart Flights", 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 Dart Flights available?
No. Dart Flights is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 5, so 3766 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 Dart Flights sit in the taxonomy?
At level 5, under Dart Parts (3327). The chain from the top is Sporting Goods → Indoor Games → Throwing Darts → Dart Parts → Dart Flights. If your product does not belong under Dart Parts, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Dart Flights is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Dart Parts first — there are 2 other categories at this level: Dart Shafts (3109), Dart Tips (3250). If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Dart Parts (3327) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Dart Flights compared with the categories next to it?
It is the smallest of the 3 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.
What is the difference between Dart Flights and Dart Shafts?
They sit side by side under Dart Parts and start with the same word, which is why they get swapped. Dart Flights is 3766; Dart Shafts is 3109. The paths are the reliable way to tell them apart — compare "Sporting Goods > Indoor Games > Throwing Darts > Dart Parts > Dart Flights" with "Sporting Goods > Indoor Games > Throwing Darts > Dart Parts > Dart Shafts" before you submit.
