How to access database's metaobject from shopify's POS App Extension

Hi Shopify Experts

 

Could you please help on some references or sample-code about accessing database's metaobject ( or any existing table/entity like Customer, Order etc) from shopify's POS App Extension code base?

 

Thanks a lot for your help.

 

Regards

Hi,

Metafields aren't accessible through POS UI Extensions yet, but you can look at the full list of supported features (and API reference documentation) here.

If you'd like to see some sample code, the best thing to do is generate some scaffolded content using the CLI. You can find instructions on how to do that here.


Thanks for the question, and happy building!

Hello Shayne,

You mentioned in the above post that we cannot use the database functionality with the POS UI Extensions but that was about a year ago. Can you let me know if it is possilbe now to do so? And if yes, how can i achieve it? I am developing a POS UI Extensions App and want this functionality for my app.

Thanks in advance.
