API to get the list of entities and fields.

[sahilkhanna]

I have installed the `com.sn_customerservice` plugin. Is there an API to get the following?

• List of entities that the user can create/manage? E.g. Incidents, Contacts, Tasks, Accounts, etc.
• The layout/fields of the selected entity. E.g. fields within the "Incident" form and the field attribute (mandatory, length, type, etc.).

Hi @sahilkhanna 

You can go to Rest API Explorer and find the API.

@Dr Atul G- LNG , I could not find the API in the REST API Explorer, so I posted the question on this forum. 🙂

Hi @sahilkhanna ,

REST API Explorer- ServiceNow REST API Explorer is a useful tool to test these API calls interactively with any table any method within your instance by your own.
