How to see indexers category headers?

I am starting to work on categories and I am wondering how to see/tell what are the category headers a given indexer is passing to SAB through their API? This may be a super dumb question but I am not even sure where to start, so any tips would be really helpful. If there is a list somewhere, that would be easiest of course. I did read the page in the wiki but it only gives one example (for TV). I guess specifically, I am using nzb.su, newsbin, nzbmatrix.

Thank you!

Only newzbin2.es and nzbmatrix.com categories are directly supported.
Any other indexer only through RSS feeds of which SABnzbd happens to guess the right field in the feed.
So we cannot tell beforehand whether or not an indexer is supported.
If you know the categories used by the indexer you can try to match them in the "indexer" column in SABnzbd's categories.
Use wildcards to ease recognition. So if the indexer uses "TV:SD" and "TV:HD" you might use "TV*" or "*HD".

Ok, I see. So the category headers via the API are the same as the categories and sub category from the indexer website. That makes sense, and "duh" on me, sorry for the dumb question and thanks!
