Clearing metadata

[petre.timotei]

Hey there @ganesh.kumaresan

You need to do an update where the fields in the metadata you want to remove have null as value.

So, for example doing a PATCH with "user_metadata": {"attribute_name": null}, will remove the field attribute_name from the user metadata.

Additionally, in Actions you can use the api object to both set userMetadata and appMetadata:
api.user.setUserMetadata("attribute_name", null);
or
api.user.setAppMetadata("attribute_name", null);

How to remove data previously saved in user_metadata using the Management API

I’m trying to remove some properties that I’ve set during testing in the user_metadata. Since this field works by merging the new content you sent I cannot find a way to remove only some key inside it using the API. I can remove it editing by hand the metadata in the UI, but I cannot script this removal using the API.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Timotei
