Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (4035) or the full path ("Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Audio Transmitters > FM Transmitters"). 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 | 4035 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Audio Transmitters > FM Transmitters |
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, 4035, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Questions about FM Transmitters
What is the Google product category ID for FM Transmitters?
4035. The full path, "Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Audio Transmitters > FM Transmitters", 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 FM Transmitters available?
No. FM Transmitters is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 5, so 4035 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 FM Transmitters sit in the taxonomy?
At level 5, under Audio Transmitters (5129). The chain from the top is Electronics → Audio → Audio Components → Audio Transmitters → FM Transmitters. If your product does not belong under Audio Transmitters, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if FM Transmitters is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Audio Transmitters first — there are 1 other category at this level: Bluetooth Transmitters (5130). If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Audio Transmitters (5129) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is FM Transmitters compared with the categories next to it?
It is the largest of the 2 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.
