Step 1. Get Information about the Schema

Step 1. Get Information about the Schema

Use the Get Metadata REST API to get information about a schema. The Get Metadata API returns the data structure of a business entity. The metadata lists the business entity fields, field types, and details of the lookup fields.
The Get Metadata URL has the following format:
http://<host>:<port>/<context>/<database ID>/<business entity>?action=meta
The following sample request retrieves metadata information for the Person business entity:
GET http://localhost:8080/cmx/cs/localhost-orcl-DS_UI1/Person?action=meta
