Notes

• For Shadow manager 2.1 synchronize configuration supports both data types for syncing shadows. The sync configuration can either be a map or a list. Both the map and list thing shadow configurations will be merged. The map approach is preferred since this allows the customers to use the deployment merge command to add in new shadows to sync.
