=GORILLA_CATEGORY("B00YD545CC", "US", "all", "full")
Returns all categories and child categories the product is listed under. If B00YD545CC is a garlic press, the result will show both “Home&Kitchen” and “Home&Kitchen->Kitchen Utensils”
=GORILLA_CATEGORY("B00YD545CC", "US", "all", "inner")
Returns all categories and child categories the product is listed under. If B00YD545CC is a garlic press, the result will show “Home&Kitchen” and “Kitchen Utensils” instead of the full category path.
=GORILLA_CATEGORY("B00YD545CC", "US", "top", "full")
If “top” is selected, you may use it for array inputs to bulk display the category information. “Top” returns only the main category. If B00YD545CC is a garlic press, the result will show only the main category “Home&Kitchen”.
For Gorilla Agency, the formulas will start with the seller ID:
=GORILLA_CATEGORY("SELLERIDABC", "B00YD545CC", "US", "all", "full")
=GORILLA_CATEGORY("SELLERIDABC", "B00YD545CC", "US", "all", "inner")
=GORILLA_CATEGORY("SELLERIDABC", "B00YD545CC", "US", "top", "full")
