How do I determine/query the list of capabilities for a Z-Wave Device?

Developer Programs Writing SmartApps
6

I’ve added this SmartApp below, that I got from (I guess) Paul. I’ve made a slight modification to his original code to also display the device ID, which I needed for a REST endpoint. I just leave this app installed and choose a device whenever I have questions as to as a device’s capability or commands.
