How do child apps that are managed only with the parent use "settings." Webcore uses these for caching devices (mainly) and for other metadata. I have not found a way to create a setting using only the app api methods.
app.updateSetting('bin', [type: 'text', value: state.bin ?: ''])
app.updateSetting('author', [type: 'text', value: state.author ?: ''])
These are some examples that never set the setting. In smartthings, if it did not exist, it would create the setting for you. In Hubitat, without having it on the app settings page and clicking install, these type of calls are not working in child apps (which isn't feasible in webcore since the user never manages the child apps themselves). Is there a way to get these working? Without it, with the latest update's changes, it takes several hundred milliseconds to grab the devices from the parent app.
