Jayanth Vennamreddy commented on AIRAVATA-3961:
-----------------------------------------------

hey, I’d like to take this one. however, before I start, should this API live 
in the Airavata API layer and what should be the source of truth for service 
metadata?

> Currently, users of Airavata APIs need to know the locations and settings for 
> each service they wish to use. This is not ideal for Python SDK clients, as 
> they need a (cumbersome) settings.ini file containing all service information 
> upfront. Having an authentication-backed API to fetch the underlying service 
> information from the gateway would allow the users to only need the gateway 
> information upfront, with the rest of information inferred from the API 
> response.
