Provider preferences

Use provider.only to enforce an allowlist, provider.order to express preference, and allow_fallbacks to control whether other eligible providers may be attempted. A preference never bypasses policy.

{
  "provider": {
    "only": [
      "approved-provider"
    ],
    "order": [
      "approved-provider"
    ],
    "allow_fallbacks": false
  }
}
