Settings

The API for interacting with merchant settings.

Accessing merchant settings

import {
  reactExtension,
  Banner,
  useSettings,
} from '@shopify/ui-extensions-react/checkout';

export default reactExtension(
  'purchase.checkout.block.render',
  () => <Extension />,
);

function Extension() {
  const {banner_title} = useSettings();
  return <Banner title={banner_title} />;
}

import {
  extension,
  Banner,
} from '@shopify/ui-extensions/checkout';

export default extension(
  'purchase.checkout.block.render',
  (root, {settings}) => {
    const banner = root.createComponent(Banner, {
      title: settings.current.banner_title,
    });

    // When the merchant updates the banner title in the checkout editor, re-render the banner
    settings.subscribe((newSettings) => {
      banner.updateProps({
        title: newSettings.banner_title,
      });
    });

    root.appendChild(banner);
  },
);

StandardApi

The base API object provided to `purchase` extension targets.

Docs_Standard_SettingsApi

settings

The settings matching the settings definition written in the [`shopify.extension.toml`](/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/configuration) file. Refer to [settings examples](/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/apis/settings#examples) for more information. > Note: When an extension is being installed in the editor, the settings will be empty until a merchant sets a value. In that case, this object will be updated in real time as a merchant fills in the settings.

ExtensionSettings

The merchant-defined setting values for the extension.

Record< string, string | number | boolean | undefined >

useSettings

Returns the setting values defined by the merchant for the extension.

UseSettingsGeneratedType

Returns the setting values defined by the merchant for the extension.

Returns: Partial<Settings extends ExtensionSettings>

export function useSettings< Settings extends ExtensionSettings, >(): Partial<Settings> { const settings = useSubscription(useApi().settings); return settings as Settings; }

ExtensionSettings

Record< string, string | number | boolean | undefined >

Examples

The API for interacting with merchant settings.

You can define settings that merchants can edit within the checkout editor. See [settings](/docs/api/checkout-ui-extensions/configuration#settings-definition) for more information on how to define these.

Define merchant settings

api_version = "2023-07"

[[extensions]]
name = "My checkout extension"
handle = "checkout-ui"
type = "ui_extension"

  [[extensions.targeting]]
  target = "purchase.checkout.block.render"
  module = "./Checkout.jsx"

  [extensions.settings]
    [[extensions.settings.fields]]
    key = "banner_title"
    type = "single_line_text_field"
    name = "Banner title"
    description = "Enter a title for the banner."
    [[extensions.settings.fields.validations]]
    name = "min"
    value = "5"
    [[extensions.settings.fields.validations]]
    name = "max"
    value = "20"
