# Website Categories

## Overview

Sellercloud allows you to update, export, and import **Website Categories** for various [Shopping Carts](https://help.sellercloud.com/omnichannel-ecommerce-category/shopping-carts/). To be able to manage your Website Categories and execute such actions, you will first need to [Integrate your Website](https://descartessystems.aha.io/pages/7630861842322407423) with Sellercloud.

## Manage Website Categories

You can export and download your Cart Categories on a company level. To do that, navigate to:

1. **Settings** \> **Company Settings** \> Open a **Company**.
2. **Toolbox** \> **Sellercloud Plug-in Website** \> **Cart Categories**.
3. Select the plugin for your website.

There are two available actions in the upper-right corner. **Export Categories** and **Download Categories**. Exporting them will download an Excel sheet with the **PluginID**, **CompanyID**, **CategoryID**, **CategoryName**, **ParentID**, and **IsSmartCategory**. When you **Download Categories**, the plugin will import them from your website to Sellercloud. Once downloaded, you will find the categories listed on the **Website Product Properties** page. If you choose to **re-download** the categories, any updates made on your website will reflect in Sellercloud.

## Configure Product Categories for Website

After downloading the categories into Sellercloud, you can assign them to your products individually or in bulk.

### Individually

To set cart categories individually:

1. Navigate to **Catalog** > **Manage Catalog** \> Open a **Product**.
2. Click **Toolbox** \> **Website Properties**.
3. In the **Listings Details** panel, select your desired **Website Categories**.

### In Bulk

To update cart categories in bulk with a file import:

1. Navigate to **Catalog** \> **Tools** > **Import Product Info**.
2. Click **Bulk Product Update** \> **Generate Template.**
3. Select **Create New Template** \> **Next**.
4. Choose a format between **Excel**/ **TAB Delimited**/ **CSV** \> **Next**.
5. Add a column **WebsiteCategory** and an **Action.**
6. Click **Next** \> **Download**.

7. Populate the file and go back to Sellercloud.
   1. **Website Category**  
   2. **Action**- _ADD_ or _DELETE_
8. Select the template and click **Upload**.

### With File Import

You can also add or change product website categories with a file import via the [Bulk Update](https://descartessystems.aha.io/pages/7630834039903362072) tool. Use one of the following columns to add a single or multiple categories per product:

- **WebsiteCategoryIdList** \- this column expects comma-separated numerical values. Enter the IDs of the categories for each product.
- **Categories**\- this column expects Category Names separated by a tilde (~) symbol. For example, CategoryName1~CategoryName2.
