GraphQL

POST/v1/graphql

Interaction with the Developer Portal API is mostly done through a GraphQL endpoint, which enables retrieving information and interacting with any of the API objects. You can read more about queries and mutations for GraphQL to help you construct your query.

Example Queries

query MyApps {
	app {
		id
		name
	}
}
