Hello There,

 

I building app to using theme extension.

 

Everything is perfect but i cant solve how we can use our app data in theme app extension block liquids.

 

I saw shopify example on github(https://github.com/Shopify/product-reviews-sample-app/blob/main/theme-app-extension/blocks/product-r... but this example data source coming from metafields

 

For example our reviews on the our database, how we can use this reviews on this liquid?

 

Thanks.

You could either sync the info with Shopify (e.g. store in metafields), or make a client-side JS request to fetch the data.

That's an option but not required.
