Product Category generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The Product Category generator creates data related to the classification of products into specific categories, based on predefined criteria such as product type, functionality, or industry use. A product category usually groups similar items together to simplify identification, organization, and management.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
Product Category	Movies, Pharmacy, …	character varyingcharactertext	Default

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column that matches any of the following rules:

The column name is ‘name’, and it belongs to a table whose name ends with ‘Category’, preceded by any or no characters.
The column name is ‘Category’, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The generator produces data based on a regular expression. Since it is built on the RegExp generator, see Regular Expression generator to customize settings and understand the correct usage of syntax.
