WEB IDE - metadata file refresh

[chengalarayulu]

Hello,

I've configured OData service in Web IDE first time and then the metadata.xml was created. but now, I have changed the OData service in backend, but metadata.xml in Web IDE has not got refreshed(not in sync). Is there a way to refresh the metadata.xml file on Web IDE?

Hi Chengalrayulu,

right click on your manifest.json file -> open service manager.

you will see your main service and the pencil button on the right.

click this button. You will see the button "refresh and save".

I have deleted the old files and then done the described above and the new metadata files were generated.

Hi Chengalrayulu,

The metadata.xml that has been placed in the project is created when you add oData service.

The file will be replaced automatically, you need to delete the metadata.xml from your project and try to add the service from the context menu, in that case it will be newly created.

Thanks

metadata file is required only with mockserver.....

There is no option to update metadata file automatically....you need to replace it whenever there is a change...

Thanks for your reply, I suspect there should be a way to auto refresh the metadata.xml file when there is change in OData service.

hi chengalarayulu.d,

Did you find a way to update the metadata.xml file, or do you definitely need to replace the file?
