Where is the artifact for 'configuring model views' located?

Hi @ShawnMcCool the views are stored in the database, specifically within the core_store table/collection. We do have CLI commands to dump this table into JSON (and a restore command with different types of patch methods)

See:

Please do be mindful though, this table also stores any secret keys for 3rd party auth providers. If you plan to put this into your source control you will probably want to encrypt it.
