Category URL Path issue in multi-store

[Nuranto]

Preconditions and environment

• Magento version 2.4.6 & 2.4.7

Steps to reproduce

1. Create 2 stores ( default = 1, other_store = 2), same category root assigned.
2. Create this category tree :
   • Cat A (url key = a in default view. url key = other_a in store 2)
     • Cat AB (url key = b in default view)
3. Check catalog_category_entity_varchar table where attribute_id = (ID of url_path) and category_id = (ID of cat AB). You should see : a/b for store 0 and other-a/b for store 2.
4. Check frontend canonical url for store2 - AB category page. You should see https://.../other-a/b
5. Change url_key for cat AB, in default view, for b2
6. Check again catalog_category_entity_varchar table where attribute_id in (ID of url_path) and category_id = (ID of cat AB).
7. Check again canonical url for store2 AB category page.

Expected result

• a/b2 for store 0 and other-a/b2 for store 2.
• Url of category = https://.../other-a/b2, Canonical : https://.../other-a/b2

Actual result

• a/b2 for store 0 and other-a/b for store 2.
• Url of category = https://.../other-a/b2, Canonical : https://.../other-a/b

Hi @Nuranto

Thanks for reporting and collaboration.

Verified the issue on magento 2.4 dev instance but the issue is not reproduceable.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create 2 stores ( default = 1, other_store = 2), same category root assigned.
2. Create this category tree : Cat A (url key = a in default view. url key = other_a in store 2) and Cat AB (url key = b in default view)
3. Check catalog_category_entity_varchar table where attribute_id = (ID of url_path) and category_id = (ID of cat AB). You should see : a/b for store 0 and other-a/b for store 2.
4. Check frontend canonical url for store2 - AB category page. You should see https://.../other-a/b
5. Change url_key for cat AB, in default view, for b2
6. Check again catalog_category_entity_varchar table where attribute_id in (ID of url_path) and category_id = (ID of cat AB).
7. Check again canonical url for store2 AB category page.

We are seeing the below results :

a/b2 for store 0 and other-a/b2 for store 2.
Url of category = https://.../other-a/b2, Canonical : https://.../other-a/b2

Please refer the screenshots attached. Let us know if we have missed anything.

I did more test, on several projects I'm working on. Also tried with all third-extensions disabled. I can reproduce the issue in all cases.
I tried to change some configuration, but cannot manage to find the missing step to reproduce :/

I also checked the code, i don't saw anywhere the code that updates the url_path on all stores. There's src/vendor/magento/module-catalog-url-rewrite/Model/Category/Plugin/Category/UpdateUrlPath.php but it only deals with new categories (if ($category->isObjectNew()) and src/vendor/magento/module-catalog-url-rewrite/Observer/CategoryUrlPathAutogeneratorObserver.php but it only deals with children.

I guess I'm missing something...

3.Cat A (url key = a in default view. url key = other-a in store 1)
Cat AB (url key = b in default view)
4.Check catalog_category_entity_varchar table where attribute_id = (ID of url_path) and category_id = (ID of cat AB).
You should see : a/b for store 0 and other-a/b for store 2.
