contains a ``import-methods`` field consisting of an array of string
identifiers indicating what import methods are supported in the cloud
in which the call is made.

its use in production systems is currently **not supported**.
However we encourage people to use this feature for testing
purposes and report the issues so that we can make it stable and
fully supported in Stein release.
