  I am using ODataCollectionView and my backend is sending annotations as part of the metadata properties. I would like to access the schema (returned by the call to $metadata). Is it possible?

  Hi Paul,

  The ODataCollectionView sents a request to the Odata server and uses the response internally. There is no way to access the response outside of ODataCollectionView.
  
  If you require to use the metadata, you may need to call your OData server manually using the wijmo.httpRequest method.
