Which option lists exactly the three metadata objects available in the Metadata API?

• A. Calculated Insights, Segments, Activation Targets
• B. Data Lakes, Activation Targets, Data Models
• C. Data Models, AWS Data Streams, Data Lakes
• D. Data Models, Calculated Insights, Data Lakes

Answer: (C)

The Metadata API exposes a small, fixed set of objects that describe the structure and sources of your data assets. The three objects you work with are Data Models, AWS Data Streams, and Data Lakes. Each one represents a distinct metadata domain: Data Models define the schemas and relationships that govern how data is interpreted; Data Lakes describe the centralized storage and organization of raw and refined data; and AWS Data Streams capture metadata about streaming data coming from AWS services, detailing how those streams feed into your analytics or pipelines. Together, these three form the core metadata constructs the API can manage programmatically.

The other options mix items that aren’t part of the Metadata API’s native metadata object set—things like Calculated Insights, Segments, and Activation Targets represent analytics results or activation configurations rather than metadata definitions. That’s why they don’t belong in the Metadata API’s defined object list, making Data Models, AWS Data Streams, and Data Lakes the correct trio.
