Hi Sumedha, FYI, we will be doing a proper API documentation for all the methods defined in the AiravataRegistry interface so you won't be having any troubles to understand the required functionality we expect from each method. For the time being if you need any description for methods please go ahead and have a look in to JCR implementation of AiravataRegistry interface.
