    I get that remote settings is being deprecated in favor of Remote Config, but Remote Config is still being advertised as being in beta. I swear I was able to edit Remote Settings back in November, but now they are totally gone from the dashboard!
    If they are not gone, please explain to me how I can edit the settings.
    If they are, they why on earth would you think it's a good idea to take them away while still advertising Remote Config as being in beta instead of having a proper grace period?

    Hi Filiecs,

    Thanks for taking the time to post on the Unity forums.
    You should still be able to edit your remote config settings in the following locations.
    On the dashboard on the left hand side located the menu item "Live Ops" this will open a submenu where you will see
    Remote Config - Environments. You can edit the values when you click on "View Config Values"

    You can also edit your Remote Config Settings in the Unity Editor
    By going to WINDOW > REMOTE CONFIG

    Please let me know If I misunderstood your question. So we can help you out.

    Remote Config is the new system being used by Unity. Remote Settings was the old system, as documented here: Unity - Manual: Creating and changing Remote Settings (unity3d.com)

    Remote settings came with the analytics package and did not require a Remote Config preview package to use.
    I knew Unity was making the new Remote Config preview package but was as far as I knew it was still in preview and was given no warning or indication that I would be unable to edit the old Remote Settings anytime soon.
