    I think some of the information cannot retrieved by the SharePoint RESTful API such as webparts and meta. So, we have to use SharePoint web service to retrieve it.

    Is there any way to replace those old SharePoint web service (Get webpart and meta)? I am afraid that the SharePoint web service will be deprecated shortly.
