I am trying to remove a dublin core field ("dc.title.alternative") from a specific item through REST Api. Try using the DELETE/items/{item id}/metadata method on a test item by Postman

DELETE option http:localhost:8080/rest/items/{mi-item-uuid}/metadata

But remove all the item's metadata. Do you have any knowledge on how this can be achieved?

In DSpace v6, there is no support for removing just one metadata entry.

You can use HttpPut request to update values, HttpPost request to add new metadata entries, but to remove you must remove HttpDelete request all metadata entries and then add the ones you want to keep HttpPost request.
