# Schema

> Learn how to read the workspace schema using the Fibery API.

Fibery Schema is the metadata describing Databases and their Fields. Basically, it's everything you see on the `Workspace Map` screen plus a few auxiliary Databases:

<Note>
  The API uses `type` for Database and `app` for Space. See [Terminology](/guides/general/terminology#api-naming).

## **Get Schema**

Get all Databases, Fields and their metadata.

Take a look at the [Databases](/guides/http-api/databases) and [Fields](/guides/http-api/fields) sections for the metadata description.

Fibery Schema for a typical workspace takes a few hundred kilobytes.
