03 · Actions and write paths
The targeted review confirmed this Semrush capability surface: Secure access to public Semrush APIs for SEO metrics, traffic insights, market trends and related datasets.

The effective permission model is: Existing vendor identity, account, tenant, and permission controls should be treated as the authorization boundary. Reconfirm the cited first-party source before implementation.
