GraphQL
supports Query Operations
, Sometimes the requirement is to Query
the same field multiple times with different Arguments
, GraphQL
provides Aliases
that support the renaming of Query
.

GraphiQL
GraphQL
provides an inbuild UserInterface GraphiQL
, which can be accessed via http://localhost:8080/graphiql
or access GraphQL via Postman,
in the query section add the below query
query FindAppleByTaste {
findAppleBySweetTaste: findAppleByTaste(appleTaste: SWEET) {
appleId
appleName
appleTaste
}
findAppleByTangyTaste: findAppleByTaste(appleTaste: TANGY) {
appleId
appleName
appleTaste
}
}
