PDA Cases
The Google product category ID for PDA Cases is 4739, written as a path "Electronics > Electronics Accessories > Computer Accessories > Handheld Device Accessories > PDA Accessories > PDA Cases". It is a leaf: the taxonomy does not continue below it, so this is the most specific value on this branch, and if your product fits here there is nothing more precise to pick. It sits under PDA Accessories.

Where this sits in the taxonomy
PDA Cases is the only category at its level under PDA Accessories, so there is no neighbour to weigh it against.
Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (4739) or the full path ("Electronics > Electronics Accessories > Computer Accessories > Handheld Device Accessories > PDA Accessories > PDA Cases"). 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 | 4739 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Electronics > Electronics Accessories > Computer Accessories > Handheld Device Accessories > PDA Accessories > PDA Cases |
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, 4739, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Questions about PDA Cases
What is the Google product category ID for PDA Cases?
4739. The full path, "Electronics > Electronics Accessories > Computer Accessories > Handheld Device Accessories > PDA Accessories > PDA Cases", 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 PDA Cases available?
No. PDA Cases is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 6, so 4739 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 PDA Cases sit in the taxonomy?
At level 6, under PDA Accessories (4737). The chain from the top is Electronics → Electronics Accessories → Computer Accessories → Handheld Device Accessories → PDA Accessories → PDA Cases. If your product does not belong under PDA Accessories, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
