Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for an improved GUI workflow that supports complex bundle arrays for configuring devices. The method can also include displaying, on a GUI, a first top-level array of configuration fields described in a schema file having configuration options for a user device. A top-level array can include at least one group of nested (or “lower-level”) configuration options, where the grouping is represented by a graphical element in the top-level array. In response to a selection of a second-level array, the example method can include extracting lower-level configuration information from the schema file, generating a lower-level array based on the extracted information, and displaying, within the first top-level array, the first lower-level array of configuration fields. The method can also include various options for copying stored settings into a new array. The settings can be implemented on a device through a management server.
