# metafields

The metafields attached to an object, grouped by namespace.

Access a [metafield namespace](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/objects/metafield_namespace) by appending its name to `metafields`. For example, `product.metafields.custom` returns the `custom` metafield namespace.

After selecting a namespace, append a metafield key to access a specific [metafield](https://shopify.dev/docs/api/liquid/objects/metafield). For example, `product.metafields.custom.instructions` returns the `instructions` metafield from the `custom` namespace.
