What are Shopify metaobjects?

Shopify metaobjects are powerful and flexible data structures designed to extend the capabilities of your Shopify store’s data beyond the standard fields and metafields. You can create specific data structures and associate them with resources like products, collections, orders, and customers.

You can define and manage unique information that Shopify’s platform doesn’t already include.

With metaobjects, you can:

• Tailor your data management to match your business processes.
• Capture specific information that is critical to your operations.
• Build a more detailed and rich database, enhancing your ability to serve your customers better.

By incorporating metaobjects, Shopify becomes a more adaptable platform, capable of meeting the specific demands of a wide range of ecommerce businesses.
