Detailed Description

Provides the ability for additional custom data to be stored against given HostingUnit objects. This cmdlet will not overwrite existing metadata on an object - use the Set-HypHostingUnitMetadata cmdlet instead.

Parameters

Name Description Required? Pipeline Input Default Value  
HostingUnitUid Id of the HostingUnit true true (ByValue, ByPropertyName)    
HostingUnitName Name of the HostingUnit true true (ByValue, ByPropertyName)    
InputObject Objects to which the metadata is to be added. true true (ByValue)

LoggingId Specifies the identifier of the high-level operation this cmdlet call forms a part of. Citrix Studio and Director typically create high-level operations. PowerShell scripts can also wrap a series of cmdlet calls in a high-level operation by way of the Start-LogHighLevelOperation and Stop-LogHighLevelOperation cmdlets. false false    
BearerToken Specifies the bearer token assigned to the calling user false false    
TraceParent Specifies the trace parent assigned for internal diagnostic tracing use false false
