HI,

With adapter metadata you can define configuration data needed for a certain type of adapter at design time. Adapter metadata define the part of a communication channel that is specific to the adapter type

Hi,

First of all, have a look at this

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/adc7c390-0201-0010-ebb2-c8687bbb...

Metadata define the part of a communication channel that is specific to the adapter type. The functions for creating and editing adapter metadata are intended for parties developing new adapters.

Thus, to provide configuration for new adapter types inside ID, exchange of metadata is done. Adapters in XI has their metadata already shipped during installation.
