Re: Resource to obtain a dataset form template.

 

Hi Victor

I don't think we have any immediate plans of removing the data entry
module, at some point I'm sure we want to replace it (using the same
frameworks as the maintenance app etc), but I'm not sure when that will
happen (and we will provide a similar API when that happens)

That said, have you had a look at how our field API works? it should be
possible to get more or less exactly what you need by doing
/api/dataSets/ID?fields=id,displayName,section[:owner] etc
