Browse the connected TikTok shop's categories
Read-only browse of the shop’s TikTok category tree (v2), for choosing a listing’s category override. Without parameters it returns the root categories; parent_id returns all of that category’s children; keyword searches leaf category names (case-insensitive substring), returns at most limit matches and wins over parent_id. Each category carries its breadcrumb path and TikTok’s permission status for the shop. Requires a company admin token with the products.view permission and an active TikTok Shop connection. The tree is cached per connection for up to 1 hour.
