View Resource Metadata

Several storage services—such as DID Store, Credential Store, and KMS—support free-form metadata on their child resources. This lets you add tags, descriptions, or other custom details. The /metadata/view endpoint returns the full metadata JSON for a resource so you can review or process it as needed.
