Abstract

A computational instance of a remote network management platform may include persistent storage and one or more processors. The persistent storage may contain a recursively-defined complex data object, and one or more processors may be configured to: (i) transmit a depiction of a graphical user interface including a visual representation of the recursively-defined complex data object, where the complex data object as well as each array and object therein is represented as a collapsible menu item that can either display or hide its elements; (ii) receive a modification to an element of the complex data object, wherein the modification is either removal of the element, addition of the element, or a change to the associated type of the element; (iii) update the persistent storage to represent the complex data object as modified; and (iv) transmit an update to the visual representation that reflects the complex data object as modified.
