Custom Field Value API (V2)
Description
Both Custom Field Value & Custom Field Value Async APIs will allow up to update the custom metadata fields on the below objects.
Titles & Descriptions
These APIs will not allow you to update titles and descriptions on the the following object types. You will need to use the Relational Integration API to perform these actions.
- data
- schema
- table
- attribute
