ChannelMetadata SDK entity

As of version 9.0.0, the Java software development kit (SDK) supports SDK entities. SDK entities are local objects that bundle operations for a specific resource type and simplify working with PubNub application programming interfaces (APIs).

Use SDK entities to perform common tasks without manually wiring requests. Some PubNub APIs are exposed via SDK entities. Other operations remain available on the pubnub object.
