Understanding the Clipboards Category
The Clipboards category is identified by the numeric ID 935 within the Google product taxonomy. It is classified under the path Office Supplies > Office Instruments > Clipboards, representing the most specific level available for these items.
This category encompasses various types of manual boards designed for holding documents during work or presentations. Based on product examples from the US market, this includes standard hardboard clipboards, plastic and acrylic boards, heavy-duty book-style folders, storage clipboards, aluminum models, and compact mini clipboards. These items are primarily used to provide a sturdy writing surface while keeping papers organized and secure in professional or educational environments.
Products that do not belong here include tools for sharpening pencils, staplers or staple removers, and devices for dispensing adhesive tape, which are categorized under their respective neighbouring sections like Pencil Sharpeners, Staplers, or Tape Dispensers. Additionally, items meant for writing or drawing tasks, such as pens or markers, should be mapped to the Writing & Drawing Instruments category. Call bells and letter openers also have their own designated categories within the Office Instruments group and should not be placed under clipboards.
To include this category in your feed, you may use either the ID 935 or the full path: Office Supplies > Office Instruments > Clipboards. While the attribute is optional, providing it manually prevents potential misclassification. Remember that the product_type attribute is distinct and serves only for your internal organization, independent of this mandatory taxonomy classification.
