Retrieve Service Metadata for a Dynamic Service Connection

After a dynamic service connection is created, you can retrieve the service's most recent metadata for your application to use the latest service definition.

To retrieve the service metadata for a dynamic service connection:
  1. Open the Overview tab of a dynamic service connection:

    Overview tab for a dynamic service connection

    The Metadata Retrieval section defines the method and URL to be used to retrieve the OpenAPI document that describes the REST APIs for the dynamic service connection. In the example shown here, the GET method is used to fetch the most recent ADF Describe available on the vb-catalog://backends/fa/crmRestApi/resources/latest server.

  2. Click Retrieve Metadata.
    The Endpoints tab opens, showing a read-only view of the endpoints for the service connection's objects dynamically retrieved from the service's openapi3.json metadata file in the source URL.
  3. Click the Metadata tab to view the complete contents of this file, including endpoints and type definitions.
