# Storefront Product Taxonomy Category API

As of GraphQL Storefront API **2024-10**, you can now retrieve product taxonomy categories in storefronts. This information is also available through the Liquid API.

This will allow you to customize the buyer experience in storefronts based on product taxonomy. Learn more about product taxonomy in [our help docs](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/products/details/product-category).

See Shopify.dev for documentation on the [new Liquid object](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/objects#taxonomy_category) and the [upcoming GraphQL type](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/unstable/objects/TaxonomyCategory).
