Bulk import categories

[rootsonwings]

I am trying to import a list of categories. I have three level categories. I
can create parent association or any stuffs in XML. I dont know which XML
files or tables are associated with product categories.
I appreciate even pointer or hint on it.

Thank you
Anil

suggest you look at the
applications\ecommerce\data\DemoProduct.xml

Thank you BJ,

is "long description of" before the category name, an internal stuff.

    <ProductCategory categoryName="Demo Browse Root"
        longDescription="Demo Catalog Primary Browse Root Category"
productCategoryId="CATALOG1" productCategoryTypeId="CATALOG_CATEGORY"/>
    <ProductCategory longDescription="*long description of *Gizmos"
        primaryParentCategoryId="CATALOG1" productCategoryId="100"
productCategoryTypeId="CATALOG_CATEGORY"/>

best place to work thru this is
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/webtools/control/ViewRelations?entityName=ProductCategory
since long descriptions is not in the relationship it does not need to
be  before

and
https://demo.hotwaxmedia.com/webtools/control/ArtifactInfo
put
ProductCategory
in the search name


real handy tools

Also, as BJ has pointed out lots of times, make friends with this screen:

https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/ViewRelations?entityName=ProductCate
gory

as well as those screens for the other entities.
