REst Api insert prodct to special category

Hi,

i need to add some products into special categories. How should i get the correct categorie from REst API.

For example i have 2 categories called „Keyboards“ The category tree looks like:

Apple 

• • extensions
• - - keyboards

HP

• • wired extensions
• • keyboards

I want to put a new product in Apple > extensions > Keyboards

From the API i get all Kategories, but how schould i use them?

Is there a best pratic how to do this?

Your script have to know the categoryID. Either you have a mapping table, you store the categoryID in your PIM. Or you look up the categories via api on the fly.
