-### Publishing a message to a channel including metadata
-
+If you need to add metadata when publishing a message, you can use the `Message` constructor to create a message with custom fields:
 ```python
 from ably.types.message import Message
-messageObject = Message(name="messagename",
-                        data="payload",
-                        extras={"headers": {"metadataKey": "metadataValue"}})
-await channel.publish(messageObject)
+
+message_object = Message(name="message_name",
+                         data="payload",
+                         extras={"headers": {"metadata_key": "metadata_value"}})
+await channel.publish(message_object)
 ```
