Hi Shopify Community!

We just released metaobjects instant synchronization with Airtable into our app, and are super keen to let the community try it :fire:

This is a two way sync so you can update and create entries from Airtable.

I know lot of you asked questions on managing metaobject efficiently, and it happens that Shopify combined to Airtable is super powerful.

Feel free to ping me here (our via live chat on the app: SyncBase). I would be more than happy to do a demo and get feedbacks :handshake:

niice one ! metaobjects are a such a pain to create from the shopify admin panel.
i’d like to build some sort of a PIM to manage all my products and variants, is this something I could build on top of syncbase ?

100%

A lot of SyncBase users get the app to build their own custom PIM connected to their store.

And metaobject can be part of it if you want to :slight_smile:

Amazing thanks a lot :folded_hands:
