Managing Metadata

Cloud CLI caches local metadata files obtained during API calling and stores the files in the following directory:

• Online mode
  • Windows: C:\Users\{Your Windows username}\.cloud\metaRepo\
  • Linux: /home/{Current username}/.cloud/metaRepo/
  • macOS: /Users/{Current username}/.cloud/metaRepo/
• Offline mode
  • Windows: C:\Users\{Your Windows username}\.cloud\metaOrigin\
  • Linux: /home/{Current username}/.cloud/metaOrigin/
  • macOS: /Users/{Current username}/.cloud/metaOrigin/

• Online mode

  cloud meta clear

  cloud meta clear
  Cache cleared.
  
  

• Offline mode

  Run the cloud meta clear command to clear the metadata cache files parsed from the downloaded offline metadata package. The package will remain. During API calling, this package will be parsed again and new metadata cache files will be written into it. To completely delete the offline metadata package and the contained metadata cache files, delete the directory where these files are located, according to the OS you use.
