Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (7168) or the full path ("Home & Garden > Lawn & Garden > Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories > Leaf Blower Accessories"). 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. Before sending it, check whether the subcategory below fits — a narrower category groups the product with fewer, closer things.
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.

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, 7168, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.

Questions about Leaf Blower Accessories
What is the Google product category ID for Leaf Blower Accessories?
7168. The full path, "Home & Garden > Lawn & Garden > Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories > Leaf Blower Accessories", 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.
Should I use Leaf Blower Accessories or one of its subcategories?
Prefer a subcategory when one fits: Leaf Blower Accessories has 1 directly below it, starting with Leaf Blower Tubes (7171), and 1 in total further down. 7168 is itself a predefined value, so an interior category is not an error — it just groups the product more broadly than a subcategory would.
Where does Leaf Blower Accessories sit in the taxonomy?
At level 4, under Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories (4564). The chain from the top is Home & Garden → Lawn & Garden → Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories → Leaf Blower Accessories. If your product does not belong under Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Leaf Blower Accessories is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories first — there are 10 other categories at this level: Chainsaw Accessories (4565), Grass Edger Accessories (7563), Hedge Trimmer Accessories (7265), Lawn Mower Accessories (4566), Multifunction Outdoor Power Equipment Attachments (8485), Outdoor Power Equipment Batteries (7333), and 4 more. If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Outdoor Power Equipment Accessories (4564) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How much more specific can I get than Leaf Blower Accessories?
1 level more. The longest route down from Leaf Blower Accessories is Leaf Blower Accessories > Leaf Blower Tubes, ending at Leaf Blower Tubes (7171) on level 5. Not every branch below Leaf Blower Accessories runs that far, so the category that fits your product may stop earlier than this one does.
How big is Leaf Blower Accessories compared with the categories next to it?
