Automatic Generation of Model Metadata

Model metadata is automatically generated and stored on the following user actions:

A new model is created for a live SAP HANA connection. The connection must be configured to enable model metadata generation.
An SAP Analytics Cloud user triggers Smart Insights by selecting the light bulb icon on a data point for the first time, before model metadata is generated. This can happen if a user with the maintain privilege on the connection has enabled model metadata generation on an existing connection, but hasn't yet manually triggered generation in the Generate Model Metadata dialog.
