what is usage of local.meta file on apps

[lksridhar]

Hi Folks,

Could you please any one explain me what is the usage of local.meta file on splunk customized apps.

Hello,
local.meta has higher precedence over default.meta
read here in docs: 
https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Admin/Defaultmetaconf

   # *.meta files contain ownership information, access controls, and export
    # settings for Splunk objects like saved searches, event types, and views.
    # Each app has its own default.meta file.

hope it helps
