Did you see the name of layout example? it is catalog_category_view_id_12.xml where 12 number is category id you can replace with your category Id so this block will display only for this category. Make sense now? :) @Vinit– Keyur ShahJan 9, 2018 at 10:47

I am sorry It was my bad :) I misunderstood your question. As per I know I don't think it is possible by XML layout but you can achieve it from backend of the product but it seems length task for you @Vinit– Keyur ShahJan 9, 2018 at 10:56

- Logged in to your backend and open that particular category where you would like to call that static block
- Click on Design tab of the category -> Find the Layout Update Xml -> Put below code in that. It will called contact-us-info block on that particular category.
<block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="test">
<arguments>
<argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">contact-us-info</argument>
</arguments>
</block>
- Same way You can call your static block from there.

Yes Thats what i am saying - Edit your category which have id 12 from backend and put this code in layout update xml file - So block will only display on that particular category. you don't need to write condition for that Jan 3, 2018 at 6:31

Yes, you can achieve by this XML layout. for this you just need to create catalog_category_view_id_[ID].xml where [ID] is your category id. As per the comment, you need to display some static block in 12 number of category then you just need to create a layout XML file with catalog_category_view_id_12.xml in your theme > Magento_Catalog > layout directory and post below content to display CMS static block
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="2columns-left" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
<body>
<referenceContainer name="content">
<block class="Magento\Cms\Block\Block" name="test">
<arguments>
<argument name="block_id" xsi:type="string">YOUR_CMS_BLOCK_IDENTIFIER</argument>
</arguments>
</block>
</referenceContainer>
</body>
</page>
here I used <referenceContainer name="content"> you can use what you fell like it.

It's quite simple. You should create catalog_product_view_attribute_set_id_[ID].xml where [ID] is your category id. And simply add your Static block inside this layout. The block will be displayed on the product details page for specific category.
