Create a metadata cascade policy
Create a metadata cascade policy
When a metadata template has been applied to a folder, a metadata cascade policy
can be created by calling the POST /metadata_cascade_policies API
endpoint with the folder_id of the folder to apply the policy to, and the
scope and templateKey of metadata template to.
