# CategorySetAllowedTerms

Allows you to define an exclusive list of allowed terms for all subsequently created categories.

If a term is present in both the allowed terms list and the disallowed terms list, the disallowed terms list takes precedence.

NOTE: This is an administrative action that can be sent only by users that belong to an authorization role that allows the `Admin` standard role, or which enables the action explicitly. See Authorization Roles Configuration Parameters.
