List Schema - URL Syntax

I ran acrossed this a couple months ago and did not save the link anywhere, unfortunately.

Basically, there is a URl syntax to extract a Sharepoint Lists basic schema that exports it to the browser in XML format. It gives the basic information for the field and views of the list.

You just have to put in the right context of words to get the result you need.

For everyone else's sake:

http://<PATH TO SITE>/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?Cmd=ExportList&List={GUID}

The list GUID can be found by going to the List Settings, then pulling out the GUID from the URL.
