Fields

None. Needs Products and changes: Read.

Every category, in one flat list ordered so that a parent always comes before its children (by depth, then sort_order), so you can build the tree in one pass. A product's category and category_path are slugs from here. It is the same tree for every store, and it is served even while catalog sync is switched off.

Each category

FieldMeaning
slugThe category's name in this API: a product's category and category_path, and the categories of a pricing rule or restriction, name it by its slug. FFL Monkey staff can change a slug; the category stays the same category, so read the tree again rather than keeping it for good.
nameThe category's name for people.
descriptionCopy for the category's own page, or null.
parentThe parent's slug, or null at a root.
depth0 at a root, 1 for its children, and so on.
sort_orderOrder among the parent's children.

Returns

  • 200The tree, in data.
