  title: Datadog Manage Metric Metadata
  summary: Read a metric's tag configuration, then update its tags and metadata.
  description: >-
    A governance pattern for managing custom metric cardinality in Datadog. The
    workflow reads the existing tag configuration for a metric to capture its
    current type and tag keys, then issues a merge-patch update to change the
    set of indexed tag keys and percentile behavior. Every step spells out its
    request inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
