Build a Section Path from a Dictionary

Section path is a dictionary matching mode that builds a category chain, for example Furniture / Office / Desks. Use it when the product contains only a section ID, while names and parent links are stored in a dictionary.

Building a section path from a dictionary — Section path mode uses the current section ID, parent ID, name, and path separator.

What to specify

Current item ID — the value where the lookup starts.
Section ID in the dictionary — the field used to find the dictionary record.
Section name — the field that becomes part of the path.
Parent section ID — the field used to move up the tree.
Path separator — for example /, >, or | .

Common mistakes

The path cannot be built if the dictionary has no parent ID, if the current item ID does not match dictionary IDs, or if the tree contains a circular reference. In these cases, check the source dictionary and preview first.
