# Access image Focal Point from the Storefront API

As of `2023-04`, we're introducing the ability to access the `Focal Point` setting value for [Media Presentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2023-04/objects/MediaPresentation) in the [asJson](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/storefront/2023-04/objects/MediaPresentation#field-mediapresentation-asjson) field using the Storefront API.

`Focal Points` can be set from the shop admin when editing your image files.
