Using Metaobjects in Notifications

Custom Data
1

Hi! I want to use a metaobject inside a store Notification template, for instance the Order Confirmation email.

As it stands, when I reference my metaobject instance:
{{ shop.metaobjects.confirmation_email.live.order_mgmt_header }}
—nothing is returned. The result is empty.

Is there some nuance to using metaobjects in the Notifications context, here? Or is this simply not possible right now? If not, I’d certainly like to see it added in the future as metaobjects make text edits more accessible for our marketing and translation teams.

Hi ReavoEnd,

Metaobjects are currently not supported in email notifications - I’ve highlighted your use case to the custom data product team though.

Hi Liam,

Just want to let you know that we are also very interested in using metaobjects in email notifications. This can be a very nice feature to have more dynamic notifications

Bumping this. Is there an alternative workaround? I want to be able to change some contents of my customer notification emails in one place, without the need to edit every single email template seperately.
