The RKE metadata config controls how often Rancher syncs metadata and where it downloads data from. You can configure the metadata from the settings in the Rancher UI, or through the Rancher API at the endpoint `v3/settings/rke-metadata-config`.
The way that the metadata is configured depends on the Rancher version.

To edit the metadata config in Rancher,
1. Go to the **Global** view and click the **Settings** tab.
1. Go to the **rke-metadata-config** section. Click the **Ellipsis (...)** and click **Edit.**
1. You can optionally fill in the following parameters:
- `refresh-interval-minutes`: This is the amount of time that Rancher waits to sync the metadata. To disable the periodic refresh, set `refresh-interval-minutes` to 0.
- `url`: This is the HTTP path that Rancher fetches data from. The path must be a direct path to a JSON file. For example, the default URL for Rancher v2.4 is `https://releases.rancher.com/kontainer-driver-metadata/release-v2.4/data.json`.
If you don't have an air gap setup, you don't need to specify the URL where Rancher gets the metadata, because the default setting is to pull from [Rancher's metadata Git repository.](https://github.com/rancher/kontainer-driver-metadata/blob/dev-v2.5/data/data.json)
However, if you have an [air gap setup,](#air-gap-setups) you will need to mirror the Kubernetes metadata repository in a location available to Rancher. Then you need to change the URL to point to the new location of the JSON file.
