Categories

To ensure your products are correctly categorized and to improve visibility you should include the ja_category field in your API. The value of the field should be the ID of the category. The list of categories is found here.

If that is hard to implement in your ecommerce platform you can include a Google product category. We will then use this to map to our categories.

You should at least include product_type which will be your own category. We will try to use that to categorize products to our categories.
