# Parent

The ID of the category to set as the parent for your new taxonomy. The default parent category is the root category, which has the ID `0`.

NOTE: This parameter does not have an effect if you set WriteTaxonomy to `True`. In this case, the Category component stores the taxonomy in the `HIERDOCS` subdirectory of the `Taxonomy` directory in your Category installation directory, rather than adding it to the category hierarchy.

Actions: | TaxonomyGenerate
Type: | String
Default: |
Example: | `Parent=123456789987654321`
See Also: | WriteTaxonomy
