how can we restrict metadata in DX API?

The metadata is controlled or restricted to the fields defined in AllowedStartingFields Data transform. Please find the below link for more details Pegasystems Documentation

In my opinion, Metadata comes from the UI layer, so controlling the view is the key What might help is: Control it via View configuration (only include required fields) Use field-level security (roles/privileges) Or expose a custom API if you need stricter control

What kind of metadata you mean? If you don’t use DX part of API and interested only in data part you can restrict uiResource being returned on response.

Is there any way that we can restrict metadata in case of DX API's
