RFE: Always return array for "response" field in BIG-IQ AS3 GET endpoint /mgmt/shared/appscvs/declare
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When the AS3 configuration is retrieved from a BIG-IQ, the "response" field in the JSON response is not a fixed variable type. When a single BIG-IP target exists, the value is a dictionary. When multiple BIG-IP targets exist, the value is an array of dictionaries.
Describe the solution you'd like
BIG-IQ should return an array, even with a single value, keeping the expected variable type the same regardless of item count.
Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.
Additional context
BIG-IQ AS3 response with single BIG-IP target:
