Custom text not added in cart drawer through theme app extension embed app

Topic summary

Main issue: In a Shopify store using a theme app extension (embedded app), custom text associated with a product is not appearing in the cart drawer immediately after clicking “Add to cart.” It only shows after a page refresh and then opening the cart drawer.

Context: The cart drawer is the slide-out mini-cart UI. A theme app extension embeds app-provided blocks/features into the theme. The app involved is an embedded app (likely “King”).

Behavior:

  • Expected: Custom text should display in the cart drawer right after adding to cart.
  • Actual: Custom text is missing until the page is refreshed.

Scope: Reported by one user; no code snippets, images, or logs provided.

Status: No replies or solutions posted. The issue remains unresolved.

Open items: Root cause and fix are not identified. Further clarification and troubleshooting steps are needed to determine why the cart drawer does not update with the custom text without a page refresh.
