for example call this macro for metaobjects intereseting to you. The fullList table will contains all your interesting objects with metaId and object type:

    options Metaport=portnumber;                                                                                                                                                                                                                            
    options MetaUser="userid";                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
    options Metapass="password";                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
    options MetaServer="serverName"; 
    options metaprotocol=bridge;

    data fullList;
    length objName $60 objId $17 objType $50;;
    delete;
    run;

    %macro getMeta(objType);
            data temp(keep=objType objName objId);
                length uri $256 objName $60 objId $17 objType $50;
                uri="";n=1;TableName="";
                objType="&objType";
                    do while(metadata_getnobj("omsobj:&objType?@Id ? '.'",n,uri) >= 0);
                            rc=metadata_getattr(uri,"Name",objName);
                            rc=metadata_getattr(uri,"Id",objId);
                            n=n+1; 
                            output;
                    end;
            run;
            proc append base=fullList data=temp;
            run;
    %mend;
    %getMeta(Person);
    %getMeta(PhysicalTable);
    %getMeta(Job);
    %getMeta(JFob);
