What Are Shopify Metafields?
Shopify metafields let you store extra information about your products beyond the default fields (such as title, description, price, etc.). With metafields, you can customize product data to meet your business needs, like adding material details, custom sizing info, or SEO tags.
Vendoo makes it easy to work with these metafields when creating or editing your listings.
How to Add or Edit Shopify Metafields in Vendoo
1. Connect Your Shopify Store
Go to Marketplace Connections in Vendoo, connect your Shopify store, and sync it.
2. Go to Your Vendoo Form
Open the product you want to list or edit. Go to the Shopify form.
3. Locate the Metafields Section
You’ll see the option to add or edit your Shopify metafields.
Important: You must select an item category in order to view the category-specific metafields.
4. Fill in the Required Information
Enter the values for each metafield. For example:
Material: 100% Cotton
Care Instructions: Hand wash only
SEO Tag: summer-collection
5. Save
Once you’ve added your metafields, click Save. When you publish or update your listing, Vendoo will push these metafields to your Shopify store.
6. Switching or Updating Metafields
If you update metafields in Shopify, refresh them in Vendoo to see the changes. If you add new metafields in Shopify, they’ll appear in Vendoo once synced.
7. Confirm Your Listing
Double-check that all metafields are correct before publishing.
💡 Tip: If you import an item, its Shopify metafields will already appear automatically. Double-check your metafields before publishing, since incorrect or missing data may affect how your product displays on your Shopify storefront or in search results.
