+#### Store the Data
+I case you plugin needs to store data permanently, InvenTree has a nice feature called
+[metadata](metadata.md). You can easily store your values by adding a few lines
+to the do_something function.
+code:
+
+```python
+    def do_something(self, request):
+
+        data=json.loads(request.body)
+        print('Data received:', data)
+	for key in data:
+	    self.build.metadata[key]=data[key]
+	self.build.save()
+```
