Clear every existing category from the selected products and assign new ones in one action. This is a clean-slate approach. Use it when you want to fully recategorize products.
This action removes all existing categories before assigning the new ones. To add categories without removing what’s already there, use Assign to Categories instead.

Tips

  • This is the fastest way to move products from one category structure to another. There’s no need to remove old categories first.
  • Use this when migrating to a new category tree or restructuring your catalog.
  • Test on a small batch first to confirm the new assignments look correct before applying to your full selection.
