I am new to salesforce. I need to know how to design a WSDL for salesforce REST API inorder to connect salesforce service?

I have a doubt, is it possible to do a GET request(sales force has REST access) on sales force resources and create xsd based on the response xml received for each request?

But I cant able to find particular schema available for salesforce. or

Is there any other way to design a WSDL for REST API?

Thank you for your answer in advance

For the REST API, you don't need to use the WSDL. You can explore the API by going to

https://{instance}.salesforce.com/services/data/v24.0

For an interactive explorer, check out apigee's salesforce console:

You can also use Workbench to make REST calls to Salesforce:
