Type of Documentation Change

Content update

Documentation Page URL or Path

https://docs.dify.ai/api-reference/documents/create-a-document-from-text

Current Content

the API doc for documents doesn't contain anything about Modify Metadata for a Single Document

Suggested Changes

but in the legacy-doc, this part was included Add Metadata Fields to the Knowledge Base & Modify Metadata for a Single Document

Reason for Change

  • the missing in doc has left users who want to update documents' metadata via the API confused, thinking that such API capabilities are no longer supported.
  • but actually, these APIs still work very well, just lost in doc.
