Registry#
Registry records can be addressed through the @registry endpoint on the Plone site.
To address a specific record, the fully qualified dotted name of the registry record has to be passed as a path segment, for example, /plone/@registy/my.record.
Reading or writing registry records require the cmf.ManagePortal permission.
