Description
A good service API needs to be discoverable, so you are not always having to refer to the documentation html.
Maybe /api/action should return a list of actions available? (Currently this returns a 404.)
- It would be nice to sort these into get/create/update/delete.
- #1438 Parameters for each of the actions must be discoverable too
/api/action/{action_name} should also return the help text / parameters allowable. (Currently this returns 400 error)

Moving out of v1.6 (has not super ticket atm and seems of low relative importance -- nice to have but not essential).
