  mutation

  Creates a metaobject entry based on an existing [`MetaobjectDefinition`](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/admin-graphql/latest/objects/MetaobjectDefinition). The type must match a definition that already exists in the shop.

  Specify field values using key-value pairs that correspond to the field definitions. The mutation generates a unique handle automatically if you don't provide one. You can also configure capabilities like publishable status to control the metaobject's visibility across channels.
