Retrieve metadata files describing the REST services and the schema of the objects passed in the services. Two resources are provided:
# The Web Application Description Language (WADL) - WADL is a machine-readable XML description of HTTP-based web applications (typically REST web services). WADL models the resources provided by a service and the relationships between them. It is platform and language independent and aims to promote reuse of applications beyond the basic use in a web browser.[1]
# The XML Schema (XSD) - XSD is a description of a type of XML document, typically expressed in terms of constraints on the structure and content of documents of that type, above and beyond the basic syntactical constraints imposed by XML.
