Flexmls: Listing Meta Origins

This service exposes the relationship between standard and custom fields, specifically which custom fields a standard field is composed of, and which standard fields a custom field contributes to. It is important to distinguish this service from translations which includes only fields that directly translate in a one-to-one fashion and does not account for fields derived from many source fields.
