Flow: New actions for working with metaobjects

Flow now has more tools for working with metaobjects in workflows. In addition to the recent Metaobject entry created trigger, Flow now offers the actions Get metaobject entries and Get metaobject entry.

These actions makes it easier to store data in metaobjects and retrieve it for use in workflows. For example, a metaobject can be used to manage a fraud deny list which is then queried from Flow and used for subsequent steps that send internal email alerts or cancel orders.

The Get metaobject entries action retrieves a list of entries for a metaobject from your store. In addition to common query fields such as display name or updated date, metaobjects can also be queried by value.

The Get metaobject entry action retrieves a single entry by handle.
