How to alter namespace and key for custom metafields?

I have a set of custom metafields, and I want to change the namespace and key for them. This field is grayed out on the edit metafields screen — is there some way I can override and change the namespace / key?

Hi @wmwm ,

Assuming that we’re discussing the metafield definitions, it’s not possible to edit the namespace/key there. It seems like the only way to achieve this is deleting the existing definition (but be careful not to select the option that deletes the metafields linked to that definition) and creating a new one with the right namespace/key combination.

If you need a tool to update the existing metafields to match the updated metafield definition, you may want to consider checking out our awesome app. Changing the namespace, key or both is almost a “single click” task when using our app.

Hope this helps!
