list_fields

List a served dataset's fields, with their types, descriptions, ranges and values, before querying it. Call it before query_rows or count_rows unless you already know the exact names and values, because where matches values exactly and an unknown field is an error. It also names the key fields diff_versions compares on and the partition fields list_partitions accepts. slug is lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, the part after /d/ in a dataset page URL, such as au-road-deaths. The answer describes the newest version, in one page. The call costs nothing against the rate limit. A slug that is not served or not loaded for queries returns an error.
