  I tried something simple and it seems to work.

   

  public static void main(String[] args) {
          BoxAPIConnection api = new BoxAPIConnection(DEVELOPER_TOKEN);
  
          BoxFile file = new BoxFile(api, "removed for privacy33");
          file.createMetadata(new Metadata().add("/foo", "bar"));
  
          Metadata metadata = file.getMetadata();
          System.out.println("printing out meta-data: " + metadata.get("/foo"));
  }

  Here's my output:

  
  printing out meta-data: bar
  
  Process finished with exit code 0

  Hi Kendomen,

    I created Metadata the same way you described, but while searching  for the key, I'm not getting any results. 

   

  Thanks,

  Veemini.
