Knowledge articles within a knowledge base are grouped by category. These groups can
help you define the knowledge base taxonomy, and can help users find articles within that
knowledge base.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required:

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

As a knowledge contributor, when editing a knowledge article you can select
categories using the Category picker, and add or edit categories if enabled for the
knowledge base.

## Prozedur

1. Click the reference lookup icon beside the Category field.
2. Select an existing category, or click the add category icon (+) to add a new category.
