Have you tried nesting subgroups under nodes: for a given node?

Here’s an example fragment where the Internal node is nested under the Classification node:

  - name: Classification
    description: A set of terms related to Data Classification
    knowledge_links:
      - label: Wiki link for classification
        url: "<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification>"
    nodes:
      - name: Internal
        description: Internal terms
        terms:
          - name: Sensitive
            description: Sensitive Data
            custom_properties:
              is_confidential: false
          - name: Confidential
            description: Confidential Data
            custom_properties:
              is_confidential: true
          - name: HighlyConfidential
            description: Highly Confidential Data
            custom_properties:
              is_confidential: true```
