Metadata

In order to add metadata to each note you should create table with two columns: “name” and “value”. Like this: There are several optional metadata properties that you can specify:
  • location - location where the content was created. E.g. ‘New York’.
  • description - short description of the content.
  • date - date of the creation. Format YYYY-MM-DD. E.g. ‘2022-07-15’
  • tags - comma separated tags/keywords.
  • language - two letter language code.
  • RTL - left to right text orientation.
You can add any additional metadata property that you consider valuable.
