# New liquid page\_image global object

You can now use the `page_image` global object to output a store's [social sharing image](https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-store/legacy/using-themes/change-the-layout/theme-settings/showing-social-media-thumbnail-images) preview. This is the image that is displayed when Shopify store URLs are shared on social channels.

Learn more about the global `page_image` object in our [developer documentation](https://shopify.dev/docs/themes/liquid/reference/objects/page-image).
