Search API for meta data (not moderation custom tag)

Hi All,   We know that there is a API v1 to get/set/reset the meta data /messages/id/${messageId}/metadata/key/${metakey}/(get/set/reset) reset = delete the metakey   We try to do a search api ...

    Ok, it looks like I have to use Lithium built-in custom tag (attribute tag) from mod tools. I can get/set/reset the key. API v2 supports custom tag in where statement (only for the key)

peterlu- You can perform search on metadata as well.

 

 

select * from messages where meta_data_name matches "metadatavalue"

Please check this thread.

TariqHussainIt does not work. I believe this require Lithium Support's special setup?

    peterlu- Lithium support is needed to add the custom metadata but not for the API's. Metadata API will work if the Metadata is already added.

      TariqHussain Lithium Support has told me that custom meta is not supported in API v2. They have added the meta key for me. I have tried the query, no luck. So I am thinking of using modbar custom tag now, since it is supported in API v2, but it only supports the meta key search, not the value, according to the doc.
