What's newin Layers

Automatic product families can now group by metaobject-reference and list-typed attributes.

See exactly when a newly enabled facet is ready, with live Building, Live, and Failed status in the dashboard.

The product details page now flags active, published products that Layers is excluding from search and collections, and names the exact tag or setting responsible.

Layers now detects geo-shaped values in JSON metafields automatically, so geo attributes are ready without manual setup.

Layers now supports Shopify collections that include only some of a product’s variants, so browse, filters, price sorting, and variant breakouts respect exactly what’s in the collection.

Turn single-type metaobject-reference metafields — like color or material swatches — into storefront facets, with an opt-in flag that resolves each value’s display name and image automatically.

See exactly what Layers indexed for a product, what it left out and why, and how variants were split — right from the product page.

Write JavaScript functions for high-performance computed attributes.

Build calculated attributes visually without writing JSONLogic.

Return fully expanded nested metaobject data without extra requests.

Exclude unused Shopify metafield definitions from Layers syncs.

Create and maintain calculated attributes with AI instead of hand-writing JSONLogic.
