Gets metadata about the document file.

Parameters

The following parameters are in the computed field's global Method parameter:

key	value	description
id (required)	`getFileMetadata`
type	`filename`, `contentType`	If you specify `filename`, outputs the document's filename without the file extension. Sensible gets the filename from the Document Name parameter if you extract through the Sensible API or SDKs, or assigns a document name on upload if you use the Sensible app. If you specify `contentType`, outputs the document's MIME content type, for example, `image/jpeg` or `application/pdf`.

Examples
