cURL Example

The following example demonstrates how to remove metadata properties that match regular expression “^[N]ame[A-Z].*".

# Kindly place App Key in "client_secret" and App SID in "client_id" argument.
curl -v "https://api.groupdocs.cloud/connect/token" \
-X POST \
-d "grant_type#client_credentials&client_id#xxxx&client_secret#xxxx" \
-H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
-H "Accept: application/json"

SDKs

Using an SDK (API client) is the quickest way for a developer to speed up the development. An SDK takes care of a lot of low-level details of making requests and handling responses and lets you focus on writing code specific to your particular project. Check out our GitHub repository for a complete list of GroupDocs.Metadata Cloud SDKs along with working examples, to get you started in no time. Please check Available SDKs article to learn how to add an SDK to your project.
