Filter products by category in a Shopware 6 Import/Export Profile - shopware6

Question

I created a Profile in shopware 6 with the api.
The body of the request is:
{
"id": "my99id2cb2784069938089a8a77ctest",
"label": "Label test",
"name": "name test",
"sourceEntity": "product",
"fileType": "text/csv",
"delimiter": ";",
"enclosure": "\"",
"createdAt": "2022-11-10T10:15:22Z",
"mapping": [{"key":"id","mappedKey":"id","position":0,"id":"someid4f7c6c478b8041cfd5fe0ae0c5"},{"key":"cover.media.url","mappedKey":"cover","position":1,"id":"someid0ffa7f48e6b135f6e754d6b93c"}],
"config": {"createEntities": false, "updateEntities": true}
}
Is there a way to specify that i want only product from certain categories? Not all of them

No, this currently isn't possible with just the profile and existing endpoints. You'll have to implement a custom api endpoint.
If you are able to do that follow the steps from this answer until you first retrieve a logId. Then instead of starting the process using the existing endpoint, request your new custom endpoint. The implementation could look similar to this:
/**
* #Route(defaults={"_routeScope"={"api"}})
*/
class CustomExportApiController extends AbstractController
{
private ImportExportFactory $importExportFactory;
public function __construct(ImportExportFactory $importExportFactory)
{
$this->importExportFactory = $importExportFactory;
}
/**
* #Route("/api/_action/custom/export/{logId}/{categoryId}", name="api.action.custom.export", methods={"POST"})
*/
public function customProductExport(string $logId, string $categoryId, Context $context): JsonResponse
{
$importExport = $this->importExportFactory->create($logId, 50, 50);
$logEntity = $importExport->getLogEntity();
if ($logEntity->getState() === Progress::STATE_ABORTED) {
return new JsonResponse(['success' => false]);
}
$criteria = new Criteria();
$criteria->addFilter(new EqualsAnyFilter('categoryTree', [$categoryId]));
$offset = 0;
do {
$progress = $importExport->export($context, $criteria, $offset);
$offset = $progress->getOffset();
} while (!$progress->isFinished());
return new JsonResponse(['success' => true]);
}
}
After calling your custom endpoint proceed with the steps as described in the answer linked above.
