# April 01, 2026: Shopify Markets importer now supports metaobjects

### What’s new?

Importing Shopify Markets metaobjects is now supported in Channable. You can now import metaobjects through the Shopify Markets import method.

For example, instead of adding separate metafields for washing temperature and care guidelines to every silk scarf, you can create one **Silk Care** metaobject and link it to all relevant products.

If you later add more care information, you only need to update the metaobject once. All linked products and variants then reflect that change automatically.&#x20;

#### Shopify Markets metaobjects support includes:

* **Reusable structured data:** Group related custom data in one metaobject instead of creating separate metafields for each value.
* **Metaobject references:** Import metaobjects linked through metafields at both product and variant level.
* **Translated fields:** Import translated metaobject field values, just like translated metafields.
* **Easier maintenance:** Update one metaobject in Shopify and all linked items stay aligned.
* **More flexible product data:** Add complex custom data like care instructions, materials, ingredient sets, or warranty details.
