I am having an issue writing metadata to an SDE geodatabase. I am reading features from a feature server and xml metadata from a URL.  When I write to SDE it gives the error:

Error occurred using IXmlPropertySet2::setXml(). HRESULT = -2147215103.   File: D:\code\fme\foundation\formats\geodb2\geodbutilities.cpp   Line #: 3580

I set the attributes up like in the tutorials (setting geodb_metadata_string and geodb_type) and I am testing on a new feature dataset. Using FME 2023.2

Any ideas?
