Description
This article describes how to see and retrieve the policy sequence groups and read them via CLI.
Scope
FortiGate up to v7.4.

Even if sequence groups do not appear with show commands, they show on configuration backup under the name of 'global-label':
It is possible to reconfigure the group sequence either from the GUI or CLI.
CLI example:
Note: The 'global-label' command is a hidden one. This means that it will not auto-complete, and it has to be completely typed out by the user.
Also, this command will not be shown in the output of a 'show' command. In order to view it, a backup of the configuration must be downloaded from the GUI.
