    Hello Anurag

    Metadata is the data that is used to represent  and give information about other data. It leads us to the detailed data.

    Thank You

    Hi,
    Metadata is basically "data that describes other data".

    For example, in Salesforce you can query data like this:

    SELECT FirstName FROM Contact WHERE FirstName='Mike'

     

    Thanks
