WalkthroughThe metadata API adds namespace lookup and paginated template search, with permission data in namespace and template responses. The content sidebar maps API search results, evaluates template permissions, and uses enterprise-root permissions to control template creation. ChangesMetadata Template Search and Permissions

- Around line 240-253: Update the editorMatch lookup to match cached templates
by templateKey and their most specific namespace FQN, using namespaceFqn rather
than allowing a parent scope match. This ensures child-namespace hits resolve to
the child template’s ID.

Use each template API id and each namespace fqn, and allow 3.x of the browser.

Match search hits by their namespace FQN.
When a search hit has namespace: "enterprise_123.legal" and scope: "enterprise_123", isSameMetadataTemplate can still match a root editor template that only has scope: "enterprise_123". The row then receives the root template ID. Both selection and handleEditTemplateById resolve that ID to the root template, so the locator fallback does not prevent the wrong template from opening.
Use the search hit's namespace as the identity input for this lookup.
🐛 Suggested fix
const namespace = readNonBlank(hit.namespace);
const scope = readNonBlank(hit.scope) ?? namespace;
const editorMatch = templates.find(template =>
- isSameMetadataTemplate(template, { templateKey, namespace, scope }),
+ isSameMetadataTemplate(template, { templateKey, namespace: namespace ?? scope }),
);📝 Committable suggestion

Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Description
The metadata sidebar template browser can search namespaced templates, and create and edit follow the caller’s API permissions instead of a local scope rule. Create at the enterprise root was previously always on, child-namespace create was never set, and edit was allowed for every template except
propertiesand global metadata.Screenshots/Videos
None.
Related issues
None.
Changes made
GET /metadata_templates/searchto the sidebar template browser and map hits, including the folder path fromancestorsandcontainingNamespace.fields=permissionson namespace get, namespace children, template list, and template search.permissions.can_create_templatesis true. The enterprise root comes fromGET /metadata_namespaces/{fqn}, because that node is not in the children list. The dropdown remounts once that grant arrives.permissions.can_updateis true. A missing, null, or incompletepermissionsobject does not grant access.permissions.can_uploadgate on the add-template dropdown.Type of change
Testing done
Unit tests cover namespace requests, the template items service, root create, permission mapping, and the metadata sidebar.
Dependencies
None.
Deployment notes
Create and edit stay hidden until the API returns
permissions. Search results still work when that field is absent; only the edit control on a search hit waits for it.How to test
Open a file’s metadata sidebar with template management enabled. Search for a template and confirm the path and selection. Create should appear at the enterprise root only when that namespace’s
can_create_templatesis true, and inside a child namespace only when that child’s grant is true. The edit pencil should appear on a list row or search hit only when that template’scan_updateis true. Withpermissionsomitted or all flags false, both controls stay hidden.How to review
Start with
metadataTemplatePermissions.ts, then thefields=permissionsrequests inMetadataNamespaces.js, thenuseMetadataTemplateItemsService.tsanduseCanCreateTemplateAtRoot.ts. The dropdown key inMetadataSidebarRedesign.tsxmatters because the browser readscanCreateAtRootonly when it mounts.Self-review checklist
Additional notes
None.
