StorefrontCategoryID and StoreFrontCategoryName when adding an item

We are calling AddFixedItem and providing a StorefrontCategoryID and StorefrontCategoryName, we have one category with a bunch of subcategories like below:

 

Music

Animation

Television

 

When we pass the category ID, which is the same for all of the 3 categories above and the StorefrontCategoryName to the AddFixedItem call the item that is listed always gets assigned to the default category.

 

How can we list and item and use the api to set the storefrontcategoryname to one of our categories?

StorefrontCategoryID and StoreFrontCategoryName when adding an item

Hi @walterslunchbox 

 

A seller can use  SetStoreCategories to modify the category structure of their eBay Store. 

 

Items can only be contained within the store's terminal (aka "leaf") categories. A parent category cannot contain items. Use GetStore to retrieve the category structure for your store.

 

 For more information about managing the store category and listing the items with store category, refer to the Knowledge Base articles below:
