Best practices for editing metadata—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop 

However, the geoprocessing tools that support managing metadata in ArcMap are not yet available in ArcGIS Pro. Importing, exporting, and validating metadata must be managed using other applications in the ArcGIS platform. For example, after authoring valid metadata for a specific standard or profile, export this content to a standard XML format that can be published to a metadata catalog using ArcCatalog or ArcMap.

My question is -Will editing Metadata in the manner we have done in ArcMap going to be supported in ArcGIS Pro?

Thanks

Curtis Price There are some known limitations for importing, exporting, and validating metadata that are mentioned here: Best practices for editing metadata—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop but as a general statement, metadata isn't read-only in Pro.

 

There is much that can be done currently in ArcGIS Pro with metadata.
