HowTo: effectively use metadata associated with a shiny app deployed to shinyapps.io?

I have deployed an app and provided custom metadata.

I see this metadata appear in /rsconnect/shinyapps.io//.dcf

I wonder if I should find this metadata elsewhere/elsehow in the shiny environment. It would be great if:

  • the metadata was exposed at shinyapps.io - perhaps at shinyapps.io/settings
  • the metadata for an app could be retrieved with an API call
  • the API could search for apps by metadata

Am I missing that this is already somehow possible?

Thanks!
