Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (500033) or the full path ("Home & Garden > Lawn & Garden > Gardening > Garden Pot Saucers & Trays"). 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 | 500033 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Home & Garden > Lawn & Garden > Gardening > Garden Pot Saucers & Trays |
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, 500033, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Questions about Garden Pot Saucers & Trays
What is the Google product category ID for Garden Pot Saucers & Trays?
500033. The full path, "Home & Garden > Lawn & Garden > Gardening > Garden Pot Saucers & Trays", 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 Garden Pot Saucers & Trays available?
No. Garden Pot Saucers & Trays is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 4, so 500033 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 Garden Pot Saucers & Trays sit in the taxonomy?
