"metafields": [
            {
              "namespace": "test2",
              "key": "testkey2",
              "value": "{'key1': 'value1','key2':'value2'}",
              "valueType": "JSON_STRING"

Would be helpful if you showed off more than than that snippet. Try starting off with the exact error, and also more of the code you use to setup and execute the GraphQL mutation.

Mutation :- 

mutation productUpdate($input: ProductInput!) {
  productUpdate(input: $input) {
    product {
      id
      title
      metafields(first: 10) {
        edges {
          node {
            id
            value
            valueType
          }
        }
      }
    }
    userErrors {
      field
      message
    }
  }
}

Query Variable:-

{ "input": {
          "id": "gid://shopify/Product/6688456376473",
          "metafields": [
             {
              "namespace": "test2",
              "key": "testkey2",
              "value": "{'key1': 'value1','key2':'value2'}",
              "valueType": "JSON_STRING"
            }
          ]
        }}

So what is your error?

[Sachin__]

Error:- 

"userErrors": [
        {
          "field": [
            "metafields",
            "0",
            "value"
          ],
          "message": "Value for metafield test2:testkey2 is invalid JSON: 809: unexpected token at '{'key1': 'value1','key2':'value2'}'"
        }
      ]

Probably your use of those single quotes. Try using the usual quotes. Always works for me.

[Sachin__]

Not working After adding double quotes

Working only by adding / but i don't want to do like this .

Can you share your code snippet that worked for you.

[Sachin__]

Anyone have any solution of this i want to store data in metafield in the form of the object how to do that.Please help !.

[HunkyBill]

Make sure you're saving JSON as your value. That is all. It works. I have made tens of thousands of JSON_STRING value type Metafields lately in just one App and they work fine. It seems your problem continues to be how you format your JSON.

Please can you show me any example of json format i can enter here.

It worked  ,Is is just not working in the shopify-graphiql-app .
