Metafile assembly restrictions

I was wondering what are the limits on the number of metafiles that objects in Shopify can have. For example, in a given namespace for a product object, could you have 1000 unique key pairs? Is there a hard limit?

Please note that I have read the documentation on the Shopify Metafield API page ( http://api.shopify.com/metafield.html ), but it contains only the following restrictions:

The namespace contains no more than 20 characters, and the key has no more than 30 characters.

Thanks for the help!

There is no hard limit, but if you store such information, you may want to do it locally, since retrieving it will be a pain.

Today, most of the meta-fields that we applied to any given element are 5434 . We have a collection that currently contains so many meta-fields, and it seems to be working fine!

I would not advise doing this, as it would be a nightmare to find and remove them through the Postman, if manual intervention is required. But of course it is possible!

If you had the following MyNS.Key1 = 1 MyNS.Key2 = 2 ... MyNS.Key1000 = 1000

You must have access to it, like products.metafields.MyNS [someKey]

So it’s not too hard to get, or I will miss something else
