"fieldId" => integer,
"fieldMap" => reference to a HASH,
"fieldName" => string,
["helpText" => string,]
"lastChanged" => string,
"limit" => reference to Field Limit Structure,
"option" => enumerator,
"owner" => string,
"permissions" => reference to a HASH,
"timestamp" => integer
}
For ARS 2.1 or earlier the structure is:
{

"createMode" => open or protected,
"dataType" => string,
"defaultVal" => string,
"displayList" => reference to Display Structure,
