Getting mandatory fields in a webservice query

[Guido1982]

When we select fields, for instance

PHP Code:

SELECT * FROM salesorder WHERE id = $id 


Can we also retrieve information about if the fields are mandatory or not?

You have to use Describe for that. Describe gives you all the meta information of the fields:

Also in the Webservice Development tool there is a page that uses Describe to show you all that information correctly formatted. (List Types link)

Thanks! I knew about the list types but not how it got its information.
