I use
POST type
URL http://######/graphql
Body:
query: "query: "{'noteTypes': {'name', 'label', 'labelColor', 'groupName', 'groupLabel', 'imageUrl'}}"
But it return "message": "Must provide query string."
There's a better way to do it using the REST client Insomnia
Docs are here, how to send graphql queries: https://support.insomnia.rest/article/61-graphql
Below are the steps for postman
Step 1.
Run the GraphiQL in Chrome, open the Chrome Dev Console, click the Network tab, and make the query from graphiql, when you make the query, network tab will show the graphql request...
Step 2.
From the graphql
request copy the request query, Select the Copy as cURL (cmd)
Step 3.
Open Postman, In the Top-Left click on the Import
button, after you click Import
you have to click the Paste Raw Text
, and paste the copied cURL
request as done in step2 after it's done click the Import
Step 4.
Postman is ready to send the Graphql request, Just Click on the Send
Button, you will see the Response
in the Response Box in body as below
Step 5.
To see how the query is being sent click on the Body
tab next to Headers
, you will get know how to provide the fields from postman in JSON format.
e.g: edges {\n node {\n id\n jobId\n }\n
, If you want to view another field then you need to add it in with the suffix \n
like if need name
then : edges {\n node {\n id\n jobId\n name\n }\n
\n
here just means to represent a new line. Instead, you can make it simpler by providing a clear and illustrative JSON like below
===========================================================================
Note: The body type must be raw with application/json
content-type. So, the query must be a valid JSON with quotes ".."
{
"query":"{viewer {user {edges {node {id jobId name }}}}}"
}
===========================================================================
you can directly start from step 5
if you know how to send the query in body and other things too that needs to be required while making a request from postman
With simplified JSON
