Use x-metadata to add a table of additional data to the top of your API reference documentation. You can add any keys or values that you want users to easily find at the top level of the documentation.
The data is formatted as a table and added as part of the description section at the top of the page.
The x-metadata extension can be added to Info Object.
| Option | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| x-metadata | Object | Custom metadata in key-value format. |
Metadata keys can be any string. The values can be any primitive type, or a list of strings.
