Hi Georgi,

Just go to the category option in question, choose set "Public access" to
"None" and then add the appropriate user group.

>From here

https://play.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-maintenance/#/list/dataElementSection/categoryOption

choose "Sharing settings" and then set it as appropriate.





Again, depending on the complexity of your setup, you may need to script
this directly with the API.

Regards,
Jason
