Overview
This node integrates with Arivo CRM to create a new product category within the system. It is useful for organizing products into logical groups, which can help in managing inventory, reporting, and filtering products in the CRM. For example, you might use this node to add a new category like "Electronics" or "Office Supplies" before adding individual products under these categories.
