# Locations now support metafields

Location resources now support metafields. Use metafields APIs to store additional information in metafield values, like store hours, and then reference them in Liquid. Note: this is currently supported in our unstable API version only.

To learn more about metafields, refer to the [metafields documentation](https://shopify.dev/api/admin-graphql/unstable/objects/Metafield#fields). To use location metafields in Liquid, refer to the [store\_availability](https://shopify.dev/api/liquid/objects/storeavailability) Liquid reference.
