How to create RPE data source from "types" REST API call in DNG?
The REST call below returns an xml payload with all of the metadata type configuration for a DNG project area. It would be enormously helpful to be able to use this REST API call as a data source in RPE to be able to generate a Requirements Management Plan. How can I get a hold of the XML Schema for this to be able to create the data source in RPE?

There is no published REST API that returns the full metadata configuration for a DNG project area. This is why I am interested in using the "types" API call. I would think that any REST API that returns XML should be able to be added as an RPE data source, right? The Requirements Management Plan (RMP) was a standard RUP deliverable that documents the requirement types that are being managed, their attributes, and traceability relationships. Pulling this data out of Rational into a document or spreadsheet will make it much easier to manage on a huge project like ours with hundreds of attributes.
