Just in case anyone else runs into a similar problem, I was looking at the wrong api urls to get what I needed.
I needed to be getting JSON from the topic data, rather than category or post. Most everything is working now.

In case anyone else has this problem, here's where I found what I needed.
File:
/nodebb/src/controllers/helpers.js
Methods:buildCategoryBreadcrumbsandbuildBreadcrumbsEditing those allowed me to get the behavior I was looking for. Although, I would be curious to know if there is a better way to do this without changing the source code.
