Datapoint categories are optional tags that you can use to filter datapoint lists.  For example, a set of datapoints to be monitored in a web page can be tagged with a unique category tag, and then all the datapoints for the page can be fetched with a single request specifying the unique category filter.  

(See Datapoint Categories in the API Reference for valid parameters and arguments.)
