Data Queries That are Available with Hygraph

GraphQL Query API

You can define and query your own GraphQL content API.. A query API is an interface to your content stored inside GraphCMS, that is generated on fields you create.

Easily query individual and related content with one GraphQL endpoint.

GraphQL as you know it

Everything you do in GraphCMS is automatically documented. Use our GraphQL Explorer to create and save queries for you or your team later.

When querying your endpoint, you'll have all of your query and argument input types documented as you usually would with GraphiQL.

Simple GraphQL Query

Single Queries are just that! Query one object or content node.

query {
  pages {
    id
    title
    slug
    authors(
      orderBy: createdAt__DESC,
    ) {
      id
      name
    }
  }
}

Relational GraphQL Query

Query for data across relations with GraphQL. Hygraph takes care of the heavy lifting, providing you a single, declarative API to query your related content.

query {
  pages(
    first: 5,
    locale: [de, en],
    stage: PUBLISHED,
    createdAt__DESC,
  ) {
    id
    title
    slug
    authors {
      id
      name
    }
  }
}

GraphQL Query with arguments

Easily query for the first 5 articles in a different locale, and stage.
