Distinct numeric ID for a category on eBay. In GetItem and related calls, see CategoryName for the text name of the category. Use GetCategories to look up the category parent ID.
For GetItem, Half.com items return the Half.com category ID in PrimaryCategory. This ID is not necessarily returned in GetCategories.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryID.
The level where the category fits in the site's category hierarchy. For example, if this field has a value of 2, then the category is two levels below the root category in the site's category hierarchy.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryLevel.
Display name of the category as it would appear on the eBay Web site. In GetItem, this is a fully qualified category name (e.g., Collectibles:Decorative Collectibles:Hummel, Goebel).
In GetItem, always returned for eBay.com listings. Not returned in PrimaryCategory for Half.com listings.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryName.
Category ID identifying a category that is an ancestor of the category indicated in CategoryID. For GetCategories, returns the same value as CategoryID if the CategoryLevel is 1. For GetSuggestedCategories, multiple CategoryParentID fields can be returned in sequence, starting with the root category and ending with the category that is the direct parent of the category specified in CategoryID. Use these parent fields and the CategoryID field to build the fully qualified category browse path or "breadcrumbs" (e.g., 58058:3516:3517).
See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryParentID.
Display name of the category indicated in CategoryParentID. For GetSuggestedCategories, multiple CategoryParentName fields can be returned in sequence, starting with the root category and ending with the category that is the direct parent of the category specified in CategoryName. Use these parent fields and the CategoryName field to build the fully qualified category browse path or "breadcrumbs" (e.g., Computers & Networking > Technology Books > Certification).
See the Field Index to learn which calls use CategoryParentName.
If true, indicates that the category is a fixed-fee category. Use this information to identify categories are not eligible for eBay Stores Inventory format listings. You cannot list eBay Store Inventory format listings in fixed-fee categories on international sites. Output only. Will not be returned if false.

If true, indicates that the category indicated in CategoryID is a leaf category, in which items may be listed (if the category is not also expired or virtual). Will not be returned if false.
See the Field Index to learn which calls use LeafCategory.
"Lot Size Disabled (LSD)" indicates that Item.LotSize is not permitted when you list in this category. If true, indicates that lot sizes are disabled in the specified category. Will not be returned if false.
Indicates whether the category (and its subcategories) allows or disallows listing with a reserve price, depending on the prevailing site configuration indicated by ReservePriceAllowed. ORPA (override reserve price allowed) indicates when the category is an exception to the site's ReservePriceAllowed policy.
If ORPA is true, the category overrides (toggles or reverses) the site's ReservePriceAllowed setting. In other words: - If ReservePriceAllowed is true, reserve price is not allowed in this category. - If ReservePriceAllowed is false, reserve price is allowed in this category.
If ORPA is not present, there is no override. That is, the category's setting is the same as the site's ReservePriceAllowed setting.
This field will not be returned in the response if false. This toggling logic is designed to reduce the size of the GetCategories response by only returning ORPA when the category's policy is different from the site's policy. (If ORPA is true for a category, you can assume its subcategories inherit the same setting unless otherwise specified.)
See the Field Index to learn which calls use ORPA.
Indicates whether the category (and its subcategories) allows or disallows reducing a listing's reserve price, depending on the prevailing site configuration indicated by ReduceReserveAllowed. ORRA (override reduce reserve allowed) indicates when the category is an exception to the site's ReduceReserveAllowed policy.
If ORRA is true, the category overrides (toggles or reverses) the site's ReduceReserveAllowed setting. In other words: - If ReduceReserveAllowed is true, reserve price reduction is not allowed in this category. - If ReduceReserveAllowed is false (because it is not present in the response), reserve price reduction is allowed in this category.
If ORRA is not present, there is no override. Will not be returned in the response if false. That is, the category's setting is the same as the site's ReduceReserveAllowed setting.
This toggling logic is designed to reduce the size of the GetCategories response by only returning ORRA when the category's policy is different from the site's policy. (If ORRA is true for a category, you can assume its subcategories inherit the same setting unless otherwise specified.)
See the Field Index to learn which calls use ORRA.
