The
item categories can be created using item import when Items are created.
They
can also be created using APIs discussed below
Following
are the steps to Check and/or Create Item Categories
1)
Create Category Segment combinations
2)
If the enforce list is checked for category then insert category combinations
in the enforce list
3)
Create/Update/Delete Category Assignments on Item
Create
Category Segment combinations
Following
APIs can be used to create/update/delete category combinations.

Use
following API for assigning a category to a category set. A category will
be available in the list of valid categories for a category set only if it is
assigned to the category set. This is a required step if for categories enforce
list is checked on.
