Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (5657) or the full path ("Sporting Goods > Outdoor Recreation > Camping & Hiking > Tent Accessories > Tent Vestibules"). 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.

| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Sporting Goods > Outdoor Recreation > Camping & Hiking > Tent Accessories > Tent Vestibules |
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, 5657, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.

Questions about Tent Vestibules
What is the Google product category ID for Tent Vestibules?

Is anything more specific than Tent Vestibules available?

Where does Tent Vestibules sit in the taxonomy?

Look across the rest of Tent Accessories first — there are 3 other categories at this level: Inner Tents (499680), Tent Footprints (5656), Tent Poles & Stakes (5658). If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Tent Accessories (5655) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Tent Vestibules compared with the categories next to it?
