In another questions of mine, I was able to import multiple products, and change the language of them, based on the store and url_key settings like this:
sku;store;name;url_key;
test#001;english;car;car-key
test#001;german;auto;auto-key
and this allows me in Magmi to import 100s of products, which can be shown in native language when using the language switcher menu etc. Great.
However – I cannot manage the categories in the same way. If I do this:
sku;store;name;url_key;categories
test#001;english;car;car-key;english-cat-name
test#001;german;auto;auto-key;german-cat-name
.. using on-the-fly-categories, the categories themselves are visible from both the english and german views.
How can I manage this in Magmi – with 100s of categories, I don't want to have to adjust them by hand. I am hoping there's a way to automate this somehow?
Thanks.

A full category tree need to be set for each locale, with associated store view.
Then , you need to use the multistore syntax for category plugin for defining localized categories under each root category (one per localized category tree).
