# MetafieldStorefrontVisibility - admin-graphql - OBJECT
Version: 2024-10

## Description
By default, the Storefront API can't read metafields. To make specific metafields visible in the Storefront API,
you need to create a `MetafieldStorefrontVisibility` record. A `MetafieldStorefrontVisibility` record is a list
of the metafields, defined by the `owner_type`, `namespace`, and `key`, to make visible in the Storefront API.
