If empty, all page types are allowed.

Allow sensitive fields for administrators

If enabled, REST requests authenticated using the credentials of users with the Global administrator privilege level are allowed to work with data fields that contain sensitive information (for example fields related to passwords).

Requests authenticated under non-administrator users can NEVER access sensitive fields, regardless of this setting’s value.
