Accessing the metadata API?

[Jim Tilander]

Hi Blake,

Thanks for that. Is there some way / docs that I can discover what can be templated like this? I’ve been struggling to find the “correct” docs and iterating on these things to discover them by trial and error is a little bit long since it takes a whole install for me.

Cheers,
Jim
