ChrisWebbTech  and jcgonzalezmartin  What does the below new update mean? Will we be able to have custom metadata in OneDrive? Do you have more details on this?

    Not with sync. This is just the same quick link access on left nav in Onedrive web client where you can click to a recent SharePoint library. Difference is now you get full metadata and view support as before it was just folders and files listed.

      ChrisWebbTech - does this response change with the recent announcement of "Synced metadata support"
