# Set Vendor Metadata

## Here’s how to set Vendor metadata in Bionic for Agencies.

**Learn in Bionic Academy: [Set Vendor Metadata](https://academy.bionic-ads.com/app/courses/b2f40bb7-d7b0-4d50-a47f-3328cac12b30)**

Bionic enables you to set metadata on the Vendor level. For Vendors, metadata may represent a standardized name or ID from another platform, such as financial system or reporting tool.

To enable metadata fields on the Vendor level, you first must [create a custom field](https://help.bionic-ads.com/knowledge/manage-custom-fields?hsLang=en#adding-custom-fields).

Once you have created custom field(s) with Vendor as the Object Type, you’ll then be able to set your vendor metadata.

Here, we’ll cover how to:

2. [Configure Metadata](https://help.bionic-ads.com/knowledge/set-vendor-metadata#configure-metadata)

### View Vendor Metadata

Vendor metadata fields are shown under the Metadata section in the Overview tab of a Vendor card and in the Vendors Tab of all levels (Organization, Advertiser & Campaign).

*Metadata in a Vendor profile card:*

### Configure Metadata

2. Press **Edit Metadata**.
3. Configure your **Metadata**.
