This is a bug in this package. The code in https://github.com/h2oai/h2o3-sagemaker/blob/master/automl/automl_scripts/train#L106 shows that it's reading categorical_columns directly from the hyperparameters, not nested under the training field. However when move up the categorical_columns field a level, the algorithm doesn't recognize it.
