GraphQL Data Provider Basics
Can someone point me to the right direction on connecting the Data Provider with my GraphQL endpoint?
All I can found is this Github page but I still don't quite get how to set it up on my end

Thanks!

Hi @alanleyva22. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Sure, I can guide you on how to connect the Data Provider with your GraphQL endpoint using refine.
Firstly, you need to install the necessary packages. You can do this by running the following command:
To activate the data provider in
@refinedev/strapi-graphql
, you have to pass the API address with GraphQLClient
. Here is an example of how you can do this:
In the above code, replace "API_URL"
with your GraphQL endpoint.
With GraphQLClient
you can do things like add headers for authentication. On the other hand, you can send a request with your query.
For more detailed information, you can check the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/documentation/data-providers/graphql).
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

@kapa.ai
Can you send me an example without using strapi-graphql? Just plain graphql
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

Sure, to connect your GraphQL endpoint with refine, you can use the
@refinedev/graphql
package. Unfortunately, the provided extracts do not include a specific example of using the @refinedev/graphql
package without strapi-graphql
.
However, the general approach would be similar to the strapi-graphql
example. You would need to install the necessary packages, create a GraphQLClient
with your API URL, and then pass this client to the dataProvider
prop of the Refine
component.
For more detailed instructions and examples, I recommend checking the refine documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/documentation/data-providers/graphql) and the GitHub page (https://github.com/refinedev/refine/tree/master/packages/graphql) you mentioned in your question.

Hey @alanleyva22 ,
Did this documentation (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/documentation/data-providers/graphql/) come in handy for you? It might be a good time for us to improve our GraphQL documentation.
We are using gql-query-builder (https://github.com/atulmy/gql-query-builder) to create GraphQL queries. To start customizing our strapi-graphql or graphql packages, you can use the
swizzle
command of CLI (https://refine.dev/docs/packages/documentation/cli/#commands). This could be a good starting pointratty-blush•14mo ago
