About GraphQL

GraphQL is an intuitive query language that helps you define the response data of your GET API calls. Instead of querying the whole data, it allows you to query a module of your data. Using GraphQL you can structure the response according to your technical requirements and use cases.

For example, you can fetch the values of the Title and Description fields of entries, instead of the values of all fields. It also helps you fetch data of referenced and multiple content types.
