Providing a way to simply edit the config files directly is a potential security issue. We briefly had a way to edit those configs right in the admin UI, but Redhat reported this capability as a security problem, so we removed it. I don't remember whether there is a way to re-enable this functionality. The Schema REST API is available in 4.10. It was also present in 4.9. Currently you can only *add* to the schema, you cannot edit what's already there. Thanks, Shawn
