+        The table metadata JSON is returned in the `metadata` field. The 
corresponding file location of table metadata should be returned in the 
`metadata-location` field, unless it hasn't been determined yet - such as when 
a transaction begins to stage a table for creation but has not commit.

locations after the table has been created.

         The `config` map returns table-specific configuration for the table's 
resources, including its HTTP client and FileIO. For example, config may 
contain a specific FileIO implementation class for the table depending on its 
underlying storage.

Review Comment:
   I don't think that we use `nullable: true`. I thought we only used 
`required`.
