  title: Microsoft Purview Categorize a Glossary Term
  summary: Create a glossary category and a term that is filed under that category.
  description: >-
    Structures a business glossary with a category hierarchy in the Purview
    Atlas catalog. The workflow creates a glossary category anchored to an
    existing glossary, reads it back to capture its GUID, creates a term whose
    categories reference that category, and reads the term back to confirm.
    Every step spells out its request inline — including the inline OAuth2
    bearer token — so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
