Hi , I can reproduce your issue and I have created an issue here to fix it: [BUG] Shopify - Update Metaobject throws error when `Metaobject` field is a custom expression · Issue #8410 · PipedreamHQ/pipedream · GitHub

Kindly subscribe to the ticket to be noticed when it is fixed!

It looks like that’s because that prop is dynamic, right ? So a custom expression won’t work there

Hi , yeah it’s because the prop is dynamic.

On the Update Metaobject action, the action fetch default values for the metaobject fields when the user selects a metaobject, but this breaks when the user uses dynamic value.

Yea so you’ll need to select the metaobject from the list, like in your 2nd screenshot. Using a custom expression won’t work here, which makes sense, because I believe the metaobject fields might change between each execution, right?
