metadata setup
image
as per my knowledge
BLYNK_WRITE
runs when we write any data to it

but in case of metadata when i change it does not update and i have to reboo the board

thanks

Metadata changes are not tracked in realtime. It’s assumed that metadata is rerely changed, and if it’s not the case, you should use DataStreams

rarely changed *during installation
but I need to rebbot device after chang otherwise its ok as now ican remotely reboot

You can add a timer and request the meta say, once per hour

by replacing blynk_write and putting it in timer function?
