Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a way to add a file upload option on the Shopify cart page so customers can upload images or documents before checkout. I want the uploaded file to be linked to the customer’s order. Does anyone have experience with this?

Here are my key questions:

  1. What’s the best approach to adding a file upload feature to the cart page?
  2. How can I store and retrieve the uploaded file within Shopify (e.g., via metafields or Shopify CDN)?
  3. Are there any Shopify API or Liquid limitations I should be aware of?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
