Has anybody had any success at mapping to the Category field in Shopify using a “NetSuite item to Shopify product (add or update)” flow?
I’ve tried mapping the full name or the ID using the below set up, but get errors for both, so think it is my structure that is wrong;
I have a history of misinterpreting the Shopify GraphQL documentation, so any guidance would be well received.
Many thanks!
Hi @Matthew_Lacey ,
The product category requires additional setup on your NetSuite to sync it going into Shopify. I was able to test this further on my test account, and here are the things that I’ve had setup:
Pre-requisites
Notes:
gid://shopify/TaxonomyCategory/hg-9 is equal to Household Appliances in Home Garden. This can be confirmed via the article: Shopify Product Taxonomy
Test 1: Product Category is hardcoded
Results:
Test 2: Product Category is sourcing from custom field
Item Setup:
Note: Make sure there is no space before and after the taxonomy
Saved Search:
Note: Make sure the custom label does not have space before and after the label.
Mapping:
You may try this again on your account and let me know how it goes.

Thanks Ellyxzer, that is all working for me now!
It was partly down to me not using the full path for the ID. I’d been able to use just the end part of the ID on another platform (Matrixify) so assumed it would be the same here. Was an easy fix in the end as I was just able to add “gid://shopify/TaxonomyCategory/” to my mapped data using a handlebar expression.
