When getting the details of a URL filtering object, I have noticed that the allowed categories are left empty in the XML (barring any custom URL categories). Is there anyway in the API to retrieve them?
I came up with a work-around of getting the list of all the categories from a "Deny All" rule I made, letting me filter out all the blocked/continue/alert categories and retain only the allowed categories - but this means I have to make sure no-one ever changes this URL filter object. There is a location in the API to retrieve categories (/config/predefined/url-categories) - but I discovered that it doesn't actually have all of the PAN-DB categories (for instance, it is missing abused-drugs).
