Editing Shopify Metafield Lists
You can use Ablestar Bulk Product Editor to modify Shopify Metafield lists in bulk.
You can use metafield lists to add product details, connect and recommend products or create more powerful search facets.
If you do not have an existing metafield list, you can create metafields lists using single line text or product reference types in your admin settings.
If you don't see the collection you're looking for, try refreshing the settings for both Metafields and/or Metafields Definitions. From the Ablestar Bulk Editor menu: Settings > Shopify data > Metafields/Metafield Definitions rows and then click the 'Action' refresh icon
Choose if you prefer the 'In-App Edit' or 'Spreadsheet' method:
1. In-App Edits
From the 'Configure modifications' view, you have several 'How to Edit' options available:

Once you choose or exclude multiple collections to configure, save and run your edits to save changes.
2. Spreadsheet Edits
Prep your spreadsheet to include new or modified metafield lists data to replace existing data. Ensure that you specify an identifier in the first column and the 2nd column specifies your list data:
All new or modified data that is found on the spreadsheet will be processed and added to your store. The system will recognize when there is new or updated vendor data present on the spreadsheet.
For multiple values in the list column, there are three formats you can use:
- JSON Format: no spacing required around punctuation formatted as:
["Leather upper", "EVA", "Rubber"] - Comma-separated: spacing recommended
Leather upper, EVA, Rubber - Pipe-separated: spacing recommended around punctuation
Leather upper | EVA | Rubber
