API Names of System and App Permissions?

Does anyone know where I can get a list of the metadata API names for system and app permissions defined in .profile files?

 

Salesforce does not seem to publish the API names of the 130+ system and app permissions documented in the "User Permissions" page or the Profile page in the Metadata API documentation. I need the API names so that I can construct metadata files to deploy using the metadata API.

Just run a describeSObject against the Profile SObject, and you'll get all available fields. The specific fields will depend on the settings you have enabled at the time you call the describe. You can also use the metadata toolkit.

Note that many settings are not directly on the profile. For example, fields will have their field level security rendered in the associated object during a metadata retrieval.

Looking at the PermissionSet object is defenetly is a step in right direction,.. however  I still don't see an API name for 'Send Outbound Messages'.  Any ideas?

Thanks Smriti, this was very helpful when setting up Custom Transaction Security Policies.
