Abstract
A computer-implemented method for remotely configuring applications may include (1) identifying a centrally administered application that includes a configuration specification that defines at least one setting available for the centrally administered application and that is prepared to provide the configuration specification, (2) identifying, by extracting the configuration specification for the centrally administered application, a settings field of the configuration specification, (3) creating a settings configuration policy that specifies a value for the settings field, (4) detecting an instance of the centrally administered application that includes the configuration specification, and (5) pushing the value for the settings field to the instance of the centrally administered application in accordance with the settings configuration policy. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
