Is there any way to get metadata value from blocks in other pages, like metaboxes using meta key? |
Contributor

@bikramchettri The metadata is unrelated to Post Meta. It is an attribute on the block itself. Therefore which ever editor the block ends up in it should still have the metadata associated with it. You can access the metadata roughly as follows: const support = getBlockSupport( blockType, '__experimentalMetadata' );More detail shown in this PR. Be aware this is currently an experimental feature. |

What?
Spin off from/sub PR of #42605.
Adds block supports for block
metadata.Why?
A use case for this is supplied in #42605. Essentially the need is to store data which is tied to the block instance. For example a custom name/label for the block.
How?
Registers new attribute.
Testing Instructions
Aim is to check that adding support in block.json will cause the block support to be truthy.
packages/block-library/src/group/block.jsonand find thesupportsobject.wp.data.select('core/blocks').getBlockSupport('core/group','__experimentalMetadata'). It should betrue.wp.data.select('core/blocks').getBlockSupport('core/paragraph','__experimentalMetadata'). It should beundefined.Screenshots or screencast
