Data Management API description addition
Hey GS team
I’m hoping this is a light ask. I am using the Data Management API to build up to date data dictionaries (oh yes, i’ll share eventually!). However, I am missing one thing big piece of field and object level data that would complete my build.
I do not get description, either at the object or field level. As I work to maintain and drive the definition of our data, we have been using that description field extensively. Especially when you hover over a field on a dashboard and it pops the description.
Can you please add description to the available fields in the API call?
