Upload JSON documents to MetaStore

Upon selecting the Upload to MetaStore option it is possible to upload metadata documents to MetaStore . MetaStore serves as a versatile repository for metadata and a registry for Metadata Schema. It offers features like metadata versioning, and in the future, it will also support Data Provenance, metadata search, and visualization.

Preparation and requirements for document upload

Prior to uploading any documents, you need to complete a "Metadata Record" document, which is presented as a fillable form. Some schemas may require you to fill in the Parents fields. At this point, you also have the option to select Parents from the documents available on MetaStore. The actual upload process can't take place until all the fields in the metadata document and record are filled out accurately and completely.
