Hi,

Is there a way to extract metadata from a clover file. I have an old file I'd like to read the data out of but don't have a way to get the metadata it was created with.

thanks in advance!

  Hello Pintail,
  if by ‘a clover file’ you mean our internal binary Clover data format file then the metadata will be contained within the file itself. You can check that by reviewing the content of the file in a text editor (the metadata will be visible in a plain text while the rest of the data is binary). It also means that the metadata will be automatically assigned to an edge upon populating the respective file URL in a CloverDataReader component (and saving the changes).
  If I misunderstood your question don’t hesitate to get back to me with more details.
  Regards,
