Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (7226) or the full path ("Home & Garden > Flood, Fire & Gas Safety > Fire Alarm Control Panels"). 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 | 7226 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | "Home & Garden > Flood, Fire & Gas Safety > Fire Alarm Control Panels" |
This path contains a comma, so the cell has to be quoted: unquoted, a CSV reader splits "Home & Garden > Flood, Fire & Gas Safety > Fire Alarm Control Panels" into 2 columns and the row stops lining up with its header. The numeric ID, 7226, contains no comma.

These sit under the same parent and start with the same word, which is exactly when the wrong one gets picked.
