#### **2. Adding a Metaobject**

1. After enabling metaobjects, navigate to the metaobject page and click the "Add Metaobject" button. Before proceeding, ensure that the necessary Metaobject definitions are properly referenced in a metafield within your Shopify admin settings.
2. Once you click on "Add metaobject", a  modal will appear with resource selection.
3. In the Resource dropdown, select either:
* **Products** (for product-specific metaobjects).
* **Variants** (for variant-specific metaobjects).
4. After selecting the resource, choose a metaobject that has been referenced in a metafield. **Note that Only referenced metaobjects are available for selection.**
5. The app will fetch the fields of the selected metaobject. Each field can be mapped to a Facebook Shopping specific attribute.
6. Select a field and map it to an appropriate attribute.
7. Click **Add Fields** to map additional fields.
8. Click **Submit** to save the mapping.

2. Editing a Metaobject Mapping:
* Click "Edit" next to a metaobject to modify the field mappings. You can delete existing fields, change the GMC attribute or add more fields.
3. Deleting a Metaobject Mapping:
* To delete a metaobject, click the "Delete" button located next to it. A confirmation pop-up will appear—ensure you confirm the deletion. Be aware that removing a metafield will also erase any values that were assigned to its attributes.

#### **4. Syncing of Metaobjects to Facebook**

* Metaobjects are synced along with metafields and other data. The app will automatically send the data to specific attribute if the data type is correct.
* Understanding the priority of data sent to Facebook is important . Customizations made within our app take precedence, meaning any specifically customized attribute will be prioritized for sending to the Facebook catalog. 
* The order of data sync follows this order: **Customization > Metafields > Metaobject > Shopify Value.**
