If i edit a tag's security properties, I am greeted with this little "tree" structure of the "Authenticated" security level.

Is there a way to get this same tree, or even just a flattened list of all security levels, from scripting? I found [this](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.24/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/common/auth/security/level/SecurityLevelConfig.html) which has a method `toJson()` that should give me the structure I'm looking for, however I can't figure out how to get the `SecurityLevelConfig` for the "public" level that would include all the possible children?

Figured it out myself, gotta use `com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway.IgnitionGateway.get().getSecurityLevelManager().getSecurityLevelsConfig().toArray()`
