# ClassifierTrain

Train a classifier.

After you have created a classifier, and trained the classes that you want to define, use the `ClassifierTrain` action to train and build the classifier. You must set ClassifierName to the name of the classifier that you want to train.

NOTE:

To train a classifier, the classifier must have classes, all of which must have training defined.

In addition, the `ClassifierTrain` action returns an error if none of the training documents contain features (for example, because none of the documents contain the specified classifier FeatureFields).

When you run this action, IDOL Category Component retrieves the training documents and extracts information from the classifier FeatureFields. It uses these features to train each of the classes in the classifier.

After you have trained the classifier, you can use the ClassifierQuery action to classify documents.
