How to assign privileges to a category using API?

[ankur]

Hello Team,

Is there any API or way so that I can add a group to a category and assign privileges to that group programmatically. I know this can be done using ACP, But I need a method to do it programmatically.

Please suggest.

Regards
Ankur

Hello @ankur -- unfortunately, this ability is not exposed in the Write API, although it can be added if you would like to commission it from the NodeBB team. Contact us at sales@nodebb.org if this is something you're interested in. Thanks!

Sorry for necromancing.

I'm in need of similar feature. Is anyone from nodeBB team willing to push me in the right direction? Perhaps @julian? If solution would be good enough I'm prepared to open source it (PR on Github).
