] – Append to existing taxonomy node¶

Use this function to update taxonomy for the data that you share with Yahoo This API should be used to append node and its sub-tree to an existing taxonomy node, represented by parent-id. Taxonomy nodes will be inserted into the top of the hierarchy if parent-id is not specified.

The API will usually return a 202 Accepted response with updated metadata in its response. An API caller can fetch metadata’s “self” link to check for status updates.
