-When property values are stored in a [Property Table](#property-tables), then the entries of this table may be referenced from within the glTF asset: Each `node` of the glTF asset can contain an `EXT_structural_metadata` object that defines the source of the metadata values for this node. It contains the `propertyTable`, which is the index of the property table in the array of property tables of the root-level `EXT_structural_metadata` extension object, and the `index`, which is the index of the row in this table that contains the metadata values for the respective node.
+Each glTF object can contain an `EXT_structural_metadata` object that defines the metadata values for that object. It contains the name of the class that it is an instance of, as well as a dictionary of property values that correspond to the properties of that class. Each property value assigned shall be defined by a class property with the same property ID, with values matching the data type of the class property. The extension object may provide values for only a subset of the properties of its class, but class properties marked `required: true` shall not be omitted.

-> An example of metadata that is assigned to a node. It associates the given node with the metadata values that are stored in row 4 of the property table with index 1, referring to the array of property tables that are defined in the top-level `EXT_structural_metadata` extension object.
