Queries

Loading explorer…

The GraphiQL Explorer is the data platform's interactive interface for exploring the schema and running GraphQL queries directly in the browser.

Features​

The Explorer provides:

  • field and argument auto-completion while typing;
  • inline validation of queries against the schema before submission;
  • execution of the query against the endpoint with full display of the response, including any errors;
  • a Variables section for separating query text from values.

Typical workflow​

  1. Enter or paste a query in the editor.
  2. Optionally define variables in the Variables (JSON) pane.
  3. Run the query.
  4. Carry the validated query into your own code – see Python and curl.

Limits​

Queries run from the Explorer are subject to the same conditions as direct HTTP requests:

  • a maximum of 10 000 rows per query;
  • no implicit ordering;
  • no offset or cursor pagination.

Details are documented on the Pagination page.

Example queries​

Runnable example queries for each dataset are listed under Datasets. The queries shown there can be pasted into the Explorer unchanged.
