Hi @AltiusRupert I don't think this works. Throwing the following error - Error: Line: 2, Column: 1
Error: Invalid type: MetadataService.NamedCredential

Hi @ghoshdipan-ck ,

It looks like some of these fields (eg endpoint) were deprecated in API version 56.0 :
https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_meta.meta/api_meta/meta_namedcredential.htm

Have a look here to see if you can update this example for a more recent API version :
