It will return metadata of  the Datashape as JSON , as like


{"fieldDefinitions":{"customercount":{"name":"customercount","aspects":{},"description":"","baseType":"INTEGER","ordinal":8.0},

"orderNumber":{"name":"orderNumber","aspects":{},"description":"orderNumber","baseType":"INTEGER","ordinal":0.0},

"comments":{"name":"comments","aspects":{},"description":"comments","baseType":"STRING","ordinal":5.0},

"requiredDate":{"name":"requiredDate","aspects":{},"description":"requiredDate","baseType":"DATETIME","ordinal":2.0},

"customerNumber":{"name":"customerNumber","aspects":{},"description":"customerNumber","baseType":"INTEGER","ordinal":6.0},

"orderDate":{"name":"orderDate","aspects":{},"description":"orderDate","baseType":"DATETIME","ordinal":1.0},

"shippedDate":{"name":"shippedDate","aspects":{},"description":"shippedDate","baseType":"DATETIME","ordinal":3.0},

"status":{"name":"status","aspects":{},"description":"status","baseType":"STRING","ordinal":4.0}}}
