google analytics - ga:productCategoryHierarchy vs ga:productCategoryLevelXX -


i'm having trouble understanding difference between ga:productcategoryhierarchy , ga:productcategorylevelxx. unfortunately the documentation doesn't tell either, imho.

i'm trying represent product in category taxonomy, e.g.:

product a: category 1 -> category 1.1 -> category 1.1.2 product b: category 1 -> category 1.2 -> category 1.2.1 

i tried separating categories / in ga:productcategoryhierarchy field, didn't work (i.e. showed whole string in ga reports, no possibility drill down individually).

i've somewhere read can use ga:productcategorylevelxx (and substitute xx number between 1 , 5) , pass category names that.

is there best practice? variant using?

when using enhanced ecommerce send in full product category delimited /, example: apparel/men/t-shirts.

when using core reporting api can query both category hierachy ga:productcategoryhierarchy return full string apperel/men/t-shirts or can query ga:productcategorylevelxx, example querying ga:productcategorylevel2 return men.
