the bundle belongs to.
You can also use this page to edit the bundle group's description, add or remove assignments

same bundle. If you click the Details tab on this page and make any configuration

Number of warnings not acknowledged: A warning is anything that does not cause the
deployment or installation of the bundle to fail, but indicates minor problems with the
packages or bundle. The number displayed indicates the number of unacknowledged
warnings, which display in the Event Log section below.

string that provides a unique identifier for the bundle. You cannot edit the object's GUID.
