# metalcloud-cli bucket update-meta

Update bucket metadata and custom properties

## Synopsis

Update the metadata and custom properties of an existing bucket.

This command allows you to modify bucket metadata such as labels, descriptions, 
custom tags, and other non-configuration properties. The metadata updates are 
provided through either a JSON file or piped input.

Required Arguments:
  infrastructure_id_or_label    The ID or label of the infrastructure containing the bucket
  bucket_id                     The unique identifier of the bucket to update

Required Flags:
  --config-source string       Source of the bucket metadata updates
                               Accepts either 'pipe' for piped JSON input or a path to a JSON file

Examples:
  ## Update bucket metadata from a JSON file
  metalcloud-cli bucket update-meta 100 42 --config-source metadata.json

  ## Update metadata using piped input
  echo '{"label": "production-storage", "description": "Main storage bucket"}' | metalcloud-cli bucket update-meta production bucket-123 --config-source pipe

  ## Update bucket metadata with file
