Feature request: Using metadata in shinyapps.io.

[gbenuola]

A customer in ticket 107187 has requested the following. It would be great if:

The metadata was exposed at shinyapps.io - perhaps at shinyapps.io/settings.
the metadata for an app could be retrieved with an API call.
The API could search for apps by metadata.

Great. I am the customer. My full request was as follows:

I have deployed an app and provided custom metadata.
I see this metadata appear in /rsconnect/shinyapps.io//.dcf
I wonder if I should find this metadata elsewhere/elsehow in the shiny environment. It would be great if:

• the metadata was exposed at shinyapps.io - perhaps at shinyapps.io/settings
• the metadata for an app could be retrieved with an API call
• the API could search for apps by metadata

Am I missing that this is already somehow possible?
Thanks!
