Should I use the ID or the full category path?

You can use either the numeric ID 558 or the full string path. The numeric ID is often preferred because it is language-independent and easier to maintain.

The Changing Tables category does not have mandatory attribute requirements like those found in the apparel category. However, providing accurate product data remains essential for a successful feed.

Can I use product_type instead of google_product_category?

Understanding the Changing Tables Category

The Changing Tables category, identified by the numeric ID 558, is part of the Furniture > Baby & Toddler Furniture hierarchy. This classification is designed specifically for furniture pieces engineered to support infants during diaper changes or dressing.

What Belongs in This Category

This category includes dedicated furniture items used for baby care. Examples from the US market include wooden changing tables, standalone changing stations, dressers equipped with a removable changing topper, and specialized dressing tables. Whether the unit is a simple frame with shelves or a multi-drawer dresser with a secured top tray, it falls under this classification provided its primary purpose is infant changing.

What Belongs Elsewhere

Products that serve as primary sleeping surfaces, such as bassinets, cradles, or cribs, must be assigned to their own categories. Additionally, accessories for these items, such as specialized changing table pads, organizers, or standalone changing topper kits sold separately without the main furniture, should be classified under the relevant accessory subcategories. Other furniture items like full room sets, high chairs, or general booster seats for feeding are also excluded from this category and have their own distinct paths within the taxonomy.

How to Categorize in Your Feed

To assign this category, use either the numeric ID 558 or the full path string: Furniture > Baby & Toddler Furniture > Changing Tables. Remember that while this attribute is optional, providing it manually prevents Google from miscategorizing your products, which is crucial for maintaining accurate search relevance in your product feed.
