+**Can I run ClearML Task while working offline?**
+
+Yes! You can use ClearML's Offline Mode, in which all the data and logs that a task captures from the code are stored in a
+local folder
+
+Before initializing a task, use the [Task.set_offline](references/sdk/task.md#taskset_offline)
+class method and set the `offline_mode` argument to `True`. When executed, this returns the Task ID and a path to the local
+session folder. In order to upload to the ClearML Server the local execution data that the Task captured offline, use the
+[Task.import_offline_session](references/sdk/task.md#taskimport_offline_session) method. See [Storing Task Data Offline](guides/set_offline.md).
