# `hideInfoMetadata`

If you include metadata for your APIs, either using the `info.x-metadata` extension or the `metadata` configuration option, that information is displayed in the API reference documentation.

The hideInfoMetadata  is not available in Redoc Community Edition.

![hideInfoMetadata: false](/assets/metadata-show.e4c14bb848548f1e33e11784685584c6e60c2ffc15be881bb809599d72998f27.d96f5373.png)

To omit the metadata section from the API reference documentation, set the `hideInfoMetadata` option.

## Options

| Option | Type | Description |
|  --- | --- | --- |
| hideInfoMetadata | boolean | Optionally hide the **OpenAPI info metadata** section of the API reference page. Default value is `false`. |


## Examples

The following example hides the `metadata` content from the API documentation.


```yaml redocly.yaml
openapi:
  hideInfoMetadata: true
```


```yaml openapi.yaml
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Redocly Museum API
  description: Imaginary, but delightful Museum API for interacting with museum services and information. Built with love by Redocly.

  x-metadata:

    domain: fake-museum-example.com

```
