Categories
Update
Overwrites the category identified by the id in the path. Every writable property (name, unique_key, description, visibility, icon_id, parent_id) is taken from the payload, so leaving one out clears it rather than keeping the stored value.
A category cannot be made its own parent, and the name must stay unique among the categories sharing the same parent.
