Category list

Question

hi,

I'm using your API for getting taobao categories information.

If I match item's category id with your category list v1, v2 , they are not meaning same category name.

and category names of category ids in v1, v2 are not same.

How can i use these APIs exactly??

i think in taobao, there are 1 or more depth of category like category API v1.

can you update your API?

Do you know how often does taobao update their category?

I've got item information data about 'cosmetics' from other taobao api.

In that data, there are category ids over 1300.

But in your category API v2, there are only 177 category_ids.

hi gaion3413,

Thanks for your questions.

Please using category API v2. The data from category API v2 is update to date.

The data of category API v1 has been expired. (I'm going to remove it)
