Listing of fields and datatypes

Is there any routine that can be called that can give access to the list of all registers, their fields, and datatypes? The data from export/import report is exactly what I need but would like to access it either via HAL or REST API.

I've not seen anything that does this. The closest I've seen is in SmartApps Designer > Registers > Windows. Create a new Window Definition and you can then choose from a list of all registers. Once you've selected a register, you then get a list of all the fields in that register when you go into Field in the matrix. I've not found a way to replicate this functionality in HAL though, other than making a new screen based which uses the Window Definitions register. Export/Import Format report is not in HAL source either so I think these functions use C code.
