#2 Updated by Etienne Trimaille about 7 years ago

Information from the GetCapabilities should come back as in QGIS 2 with this PR https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/pull/5700

But the Metadata wizard won't be filled automatically from the GetCapabilities anyway for now.

It works for me now in version 3.4.4, with everything dumped into the Information from provider section.

It would be nicer if the Identification / (Service) Extent / Access / Contacts information sections were actually populated, rather than being part of the first section, because at first glance it appears they are missing.
