GraphQL request interface
GraphQL APIs let clients request only the data they need through a single endpoint. It’s schema-driven, allowing clients to introspect and avoid overfetching or underfetching data. Query builder is also supported to help you build your queries easily. The API schema defines available fields, and the request may include authentication, headers, and settings as needed. GraphQL requests support three operations:- Query: Retrieves data, specifying fields and optional arguments for precise results.
- Mutation: Modifies data (create, update, delete), with specified fields returned after the operation.
- Subscription: Provides real-time updates by listening for changes to specific data fields over a persistent connection.
