If you pass the resource name as you are doing in it will be fed into Tika and
used as a hint for Mime Type detection. I assume it was Mime Type detection
you were looking for.
The best way to see what is happening around metadata - and if what you were
trying to pass has made it - is to look at the results of what happens in
Extract Only mode[1].
