## Introduction

The **Categories** page allows you to manage the categories that can be assigned to your company's apps, so as to improve classification and searchability.
You can also manage project categories through the [Project Category API](/apidocs-mxsdk/apidocs/project-category-api/).

Categories can be assigned to each app individually on the app's [Settings](/developerportal/general-settings/) page, but you can also use the [Projects API](/apidocs-mxsdk/apidocs/projects-api/) to edit the category assignment.

## Category Management

On the **Categories** page, you can manage app categories. A list of preconfigured categories is displayed, along with all their corresponding values. Next to the preconfigured **Country** category, you can configure a maximum of five categories with 250 values each.

"A list of preconfigured categories is displayed, along with all their corresponding values."
Does this mean that Country won't be the only preconfigured category?


Use the **Add Country Category** to make the preconfigured **Country** category available, along with its list of 250 countries.

You cannot edit the preconfigured **Country** category.

### Adding Categories

Follow these steps to add a category:

1. Click the **Add Category** button. This opens the **Add Category** pop-up window.
2. In the **Category Name** field, enter a name for the new category.
3. Click **Add Value** to add one or more values for the new category.
You can add multiple values as a comma-separated list.
Each entry consists of a unique name and code. If you add a new value without a code, the system automatically generates a unique code for you.

@NielsKunst, I do not see the option to add a code for a value. Per my tests, the code is automatically assigned. Is it an error on my side or is that the way it's meant to work?

1. Click the **More Options** ({{% icon name="three-dots-menu-horizontal" %}}) button within a category, then click **Edit**. This opens the **Add Category** pop-up window.
2. Make edits as necessary, such as changing the category name, or adding or removing values.
3. Click **Save**.

### Deleting Categories

To delete a category, click the **More Options** ({{% icon name="three-dots-menu-horizontal" %}}) button within a category, then click **Delete**.
