Hello,

 

For getting ID of the data category please use following query:

SELECT Id FROM CategoryData

 

Hope this helps!

Hello,

CategoryData is an object and DATA CATEGORY is syntax in a SOQL WITH clause. WITH DATA
CATEGORY is valid syntax, but WITH CategoryData is not supported.

A SOQL statement using a WITH DATA CATEGORY clause must also include a FROM ObjectTypeName clause where
ObjectTypeName equals:
• KnowledgeArticleVersion to query all article types
• an article type API Name to query a specific article type
• Question to query questions
When ObjectTypeName equals to KnowledgeArticleVersion or any article type API Name in the FROM clause, a WHERE
clause must be specified with one of the following parameters:
• PublishStatus to query articles depending on their status in the publishing cycle:
- WHERE PublishStatus='online' for published articles
- WHERE PublishStatus='archived' for archived articles
- WHERE PublishStatus='draft' for draft articles
• Id to query an article based on its id

 

Please refer the below link for detailed example at page 24:

Hope this helps!
