## Remarks

- **Replaces the whole list**: handlers that are not in `event_handlers` are removed.
- Requires the server right `run_code`; signed scripts do not replace it here. A server-level
  session is enough.
- Validation as in [SetVaultEventHandlers](https://developer.m-files.com/APIs/gRPC-API/Reference/MFiles.IRPCEventHandlersAdmin/SetVaultEventHandlers/index.md),
  except that every `event_type` must be a server event. Fails when the server license does not
  include event handlers.
