Public API Support for Bulk Updating Category/Folder Page Descriptions
backlog

Details:
We are managing large-scale knowledge bases on Document360 with 2000+ articles and 200+ category/folder pages per project. We recently used the public API endpoint PUT /v2/Articles/{articleId}/{langCode}/updateDescription to successfully bulk update article descriptions, which worked perfectly.
However, we noticed there is no equivalent public API for updating category/folder page descriptions. This makes it very difficult to bulk update category descriptions programmatically across large projects.
We would like to request a public API endpoint such as:
PUT /v2/Categories/{categoryId}/{langCode}/updateDescription
This would allow teams managing large documentation projects to bulk update category descriptions in the same way articles can be updated today.

Hi Dahlia Manatee
Thank you for calling this out.
We acknowledge the current limitation - category (folder) descriptions are not yet supported via public APIs, which can create challenges when managing updates at scale.
We’ve captured your request for a dedicated endpoint (e.g., PUT /v2/Categories/{categoryId}/{langCode}/updateDescription) as a product enhancement.
This will be evaluated as part of our roadmap, and prioritization will be driven based on overall customer demand and impact.
We appreciate you bringing this forward - inputs like this help us shape more scalable and automation-friendly capabilities.
