Categories

Categories organize Products into hierarchical structures. They enable creating multiple classifications of Products for shop navigation and other purposes.

Products can be in any number of Categories and there can be multiple Category hierarchies for different purposes or Channels. Categories are embedded in the Product search so that you can filter Products by their assignment to Categories, including Products in child Categories. Categories are also an own, customizable resource that can be extended with your own content, workflow, and metadata. Relevant search engine optimization fields are built-in, for example, uniqueness-checked and internationalizable URL components ("slugs"). Since they are an API resource per Category, they scale well into very large numbers of Categories and the Merchant Center is also well prepared for managing such large classifications. Finally, a full text search with autosuggest over all Categories and their content is available via the GraphQL API.

Deciding how to model your categories for navigation and other purposes is an important part of working with the API. For more information, see the Product Modeling Guide.

`description` LocalizedString	Description of the Category.
`parent` CategoryResourceIdentifier	Parent Category of the Category. The parent can be set by its `id` or `key`.
`orderHint` String	Decimal value between 0 and 1 used to order Categories that are on the same level in the Category tree. If not set, a random value will be assigned.
