# Create Categories from Clusters

You can use the `CategoryImportFromCluster` action to create categories from clusters that the IDOL Category component has previously created. It imports these categories with training that is generated from the cluster concepts.

Category stores the categories that it imports from clusters in the `root` category, unless you specify a parent category for them. For example:

    action=CategoryImportFromCluster&SourceJobName=Job1&BuildNow=True

In this example, Category imports all the clusters in the `Job1` cluster source job to categories in the `root` category. The `BuildNow` parameter instructs Category to build the categories immediately, so that they become active. You can also activate the category at a later point by using the `CategoryBuild` action.
