GraphQL Mutations

GraphQL mutations are used to create, update, and delete data via the workspace API.

Archie Core’s GraphQL engine auto-generates mutations as part of the GraphQL schema based on your project tables. All project tables can recieve mutations through the project endpoint.

In the following examples, we have a table called students, which contains fields and relations like firstName, email, age.

Auto-generated mutations

Whenever a table is added to a work space, four GraphQL mutation operations are auto-generated for the table. They are:

• createTableName(...) - Accepts input as an argument from which it will populate a new record in the database table.
• createTableNameMany(...) - Accepts input as an argument from which it will populate one or more new records in the database table.
• updateTableName(...) - Accepts input and id as arguments with which it will update an existing record.
• deleteTableName(...) - Accepts id as arguments with which it will delete an existing record.
