Service → List Metafield Definition Types
AI-generatedSummary
Lists the metafield definition types available in the connected Shopify store (e.g. single_line_text_field, number_integer, list.* types) via the Admin GraphQL API. Useful for discovering valid type names before creating metafield definitions or setting metafield values.
Inputs
- Authentication — Credential method: Admin API Credentials (legacy access token or Dev Dashboard client credentials) or OAuth2. Defaults to Admin API Credentials.
- Output Mode — Simplified (default), Raw (full GraphQL response), or Selected Fields (only chosen fields per item).
- Selected Fields — Comma-separated field names to keep in each output item (e.g. ID,title,status). Shown only when Output Mode is Selected Fields.
Output shape
A list of items, one per metafield definition type, shaped according to the chosen Output Mode.
The source pack shows only signatures, so exact per-type fields (such as name, category, supported validations) are not confirmed. No pagination or filter inputs are exposed for this operation.
Examples
Example 1: Check which metafield types the store supports before building a definition.
Resource: Service; Operation: List Metafield Definition Types; Output Mode: Simplified.
Example 2: Get only specific fields from each type for a lookup table.
