Get the fields for a module

If you want to create a record (an entry) but don't have any fields to work with and there are no results in the database, you can get a list of the available fields for a module. You use get_module_fields.

•	Call: get_module_fields

•	Arguments:

o	string:session – the session_id

o	string:module_name – the module that you want a list of fields for

•

Results:

o	complex-type: module_fields – these are the fields to use

module_fields is a new complex type introduced in this section. It is a struct containing three parameters:

•	string:module_name – the module name for the fields

•	complex-type:module_fields - (field_list) – these are the fields

•	complex-type:error (error_value) - any errors that occurred
