Every form submission is stored as a Shopify metaobject of type form_submission on your store. This is the core architectural choice that makes StoreForms different from other form apps.
Why metaobjects
Metaobjects are first-class Shopify data, owned by your shop. That means:
No third-party database to worry about
No data export ritual before cancelling β submissions stay on your store
Accessible directly in the Shopify admin under Content β Metaobjects β Form Submission
Queryable via Shopify's standard GraphQL API by other apps
What each submission contains
The form reference (GID)
A JSON payload with every field's value
A timestamp
The source URL the form was submitted from
Viewing inside StoreForms
Open any form in the StoreForms admin and click Entries in the side menu for a table view with edit, delete, and CSV export.
