MetadatastringYes

The metadata of the addition or modification operation, which is in the JSON string format.

You can specify this parameter to add a metadata definition, or rename an existing metadata definition and perform implicit type conversion.

If you specify operations[*].operator = add to add a metadata definition, operations[*].newMetaName specifies the name of the metadata definition, and operations[*].newMetaType specifies the data type of the metadata definition.

If you specify operations[*].operator = replace to modify an existing metadata definition, operations[*].oldMetaName specifies the current name of the metadata definition, operations[*].newMetaName specifies the new name of the metadata definition, and operations[*].newMetaType specifies the new data type of the metadata definition. If you only want to rename the metadata definition, you do not need to specify the operations[*].newMetaType field. If you only want to perform implicit type conversion, you do not need to specify the operations[*].newMetaName field.
