when validated with network nt validator given errors:

$.categories[1]: required property 'confA' not found
$.categories[1]: required property 'categoryName' not found

Looks like allOf is working as designed.

It looks like you just copied a snippet of your original schema and stuck it in ajv. The schema you posted is incomplete and doesn't do anything.

The following shows the missing parts of your incomplete schema.

You can also see https://www.jsonschemavalidator.net/s/N9fWooAN for what another implementation does.
