Getting Started

The GraphQL Schema Generator provides a visual interface for designing GraphQL schemas. Whether you're building a new API from scratch or analyzing existing schemas, this tool simplifies the process with drag-and-drop functionality and instant code generation.

Quick Start Steps:

  1. Drag schema elements from the sidebar into the builder area
  2. Configure types by adding fields with appropriate data types
  3. Define operations (queries, mutations, subscriptions) for your API
  4. Preview generated code in the schema preview panel
  5. Export your schema as GraphQL SDL, TypeScript, Prisma, or other formats

Tip: Use the "Import" tab to introspect existing GraphQL endpoints and import their schemas automatically.

Schema Elements

Schema elements define the structure of your data types. The sidebar provides drag-and-drop access to all GraphQL type definitions.

Object Type

The primary building block representing structured data with multiple fields. Use for entities like User, Product, etc.

Input Type

Special type for mutation input arguments. Ensures type safety for data being submitted to the server.

Enum Type

A special scalar type restricted to a predefined set of values. Perfect for status fields and categorical data.

Scalar Type

Leaf node types like String, Int, Boolean, Float, ID. Can also define custom scalars for special data.

Interface

Abstract type that defines a set of fields which concrete types must implement. Enables polymorphic queries.

Union

Abstract type that represents a set of possible types. Allows a field to return one of several types.

Note: All elements can be edited after creation by clicking the edit button on their card. Fields can be added, modified, or removed at any time.

Operations

Operations define the entry points into your GraphQL API. Three types of operations are supported, each serving a specific purpose.

Query

Read-only operations for fetching data. Every GraphQL schema must have at least one query. Examples: getUser, listProducts, etc.

Mutation

Write operations that modify server-side data. Used for creating, updating, or deleting resources. Examples: createUser, updatePost.

Subscription

Long-lived connections for real-time updates. Clients receive updates when data changes. Examples: onNewMessage, onPriceChange.

Schema Templates

Jump-start your schema design with pre-built templates. The tool includes a variety of common schema patterns that you can apply instantly and customize for your needs.

E-commerce

Complete e-commerce schema with Products, Orders, Customers, Categories, Reviews, and related queries and mutations.

Blog / CMS

Content management schema with Posts, Authors, Comments, Tags, Categories, and media handling.

Social Network

Social platform schema with Users, Posts, Comments, Likes, Follows, Messages, and Notifications.

Tip: After applying a template, you can modify any type, add or remove fields, and customize operations to fit your specific requirements.

Field Editor

The field editor allows you to configure individual fields within your types with comprehensive options for type safety and documentation.

Field Configuration Options:

  • Name: The field identifier (camelCase convention)
  • Type: Scalar types (String, Int, Float, Boolean, ID, DateTime, JSON) or custom types from your schema
  • Required: Marks the field as non-nullable with the (!) suffix
  • List: Wraps the type in array brackets [] for multiple values
  • Description: Documentation string for API docs
  • Default Value: Optional default for the field
  • Deprecated: Marks the field as deprecated with optional reason

Type Notation Reference:

String
Optional String field
String!
Required String field
[String]
List of optional Strings
[String!]!
Required list with required items

Visual Schema Designer

The Visual Schema Designer provides an intuitive drag-and-drop interface for building your GraphQL schema. Simply drag elements from the sidebar into the canvas to create types, queries, mutations, and subscriptions.

Designer Features:

  • Drag & Drop: Drag schema elements from the sidebar to create new types and operations
  • Visual Type Editor: Click on any type to open the visual editor and modify fields
  • Real-time Preview: See your generated GraphQL SDL update as you make changes
  • Connection Visualization: See relationships between types visually
  • Undo/Redo: Make mistakes? Easily undo and redo changes

Schema Search

Quickly find any element in your schema with the built-in search functionality. Search across types, queries, mutations, and subscriptions by name, field, or type.

Quick Search

Press Ctrl+K or use the search bar to quickly find any schema element. Results show matching types, queries, mutations, and subscriptions.

Type Navigation

Click on search results to jump directly to that element in the schema builder. Perfect for navigating large schemas.

Schema Introspection

Import schemas from existing GraphQL endpoints to analyze, document, or use as a starting point for new projects. This feature uses GraphQL's built-in introspection capabilities.

Available Sample Endpoints:

  • Countries: Country data API
  • Rick & Morty: Character and episode data
  • Pokemon: Pokemon information API
  • SpaceX: SpaceX launch and rocket data

Custom Endpoints

Enter your own GraphQL endpoint URL to introspect any standards-compliant GraphQL API. Supports authentication via headers.

Header Support

Add custom HTTP headers (like Authorization) for authenticated endpoints. Each header on a new line: Key: Value

Tip: Use introspection to reverse-engineer APIs, generate documentation, or create TypeScript types from existing GraphQL backends.

Schema Linter

The Schema Linter helps you maintain high-quality schemas by checking for common issues, best practices violations, and potential problems. It runs automatically as you make changes or can be triggered manually.

Available Lint Rules:

  • Type Naming Convention: Types must start with uppercase letter
  • Field Naming Convention: Fields must use camelCase
  • ID Field Required: Object types should have an ID field
  • Input Type Naming: Input types should end with Input suffix
  • Deprecated Fields: Detect deprecated fields and provide warnings
  • Field Descriptions: Check that fields have descriptions (info level)
  • List Pagination: Suggest pagination for list fields

Errors

Critical issues that will cause schema validation failures. Must be fixed.

Warnings

Issues that may cause problems but don't block schema generation. Recommended to fix.

Info

Suggestions for improving schema quality and best practices.

Tip: Configure which rules are enabled in the linter settings. Toggle auto-lint to run checks only when you click "Run Lint".

Query Playground

The Query Playground allows you to write, test, and execute GraphQL queries against your schema. It provides a complete environment for exploring your API with syntax highlighting, auto-completion, and response visualization.

Query Editor

Write GraphQL queries with syntax highlighting. Support for multiple operations, variables, and fragments.

Variables & Headers

Define query variables and HTTP headers (including authentication) for your requests.

Query History

Automatically saves your query history. Click on any past query to reload it into the editor.

Schema Explorer

Browse your schema types, queries, and mutations. Click to auto-insert into the query editor.

Mock Data Generator

Generate realistic mock data for your GraphQL types. Perfect for testing, prototyping, and development. The generator uses intelligent field name detection to produce meaningful data.

Generation Features:

  • Smart Field Detection: Automatically generates appropriate data based on field names (email, name, address, etc.)
  • Multiple Output Formats: JSON, TypeScript, and GraphQL mutation format
  • Seeded Generation: Use seeds for reproducible mock data
  • Relation Handling: Option to include or exclude related types
  • Deprecated Fields: Option to include or exclude deprecated fields
  • Configurable Count: Generate 1-100 records at a time

Output Formats

Each output format generates optimized, production-ready code. Below are examples of what you can expect from each format.

GraphQL SDL Output:

type User {
  id: ID!
  name: String!
  email: String!
  posts: [Post!]!
}

type Post {
  id: ID!
  title: String!
  content: String!
  author: User!

  user(id: ID!): User
}

TypeScript Types Output:

export interface User {

  email: string;
  posts: Post[];
}

export interface Post {
  id: string;
  title: string;
  content: string;
