Object types

Object types represent the resources that the Meshery GraphQL API can return. They contain fields. Each field has its own type, which will either be one of the basic GraphQL scalar types (e.g.: String or Boolean) or other object types. Fields may have arguments. Fields with arguments are exactly like top-level queries, and are listed beneath the table of fields for each object type.

Scalar types

Scalar values are atomic values, and do not have fields of their own. Basic scalars include strings, boolean values, and numbers. This schema also defines various custom scalar values, such as types for times and dates.

This schema includes custom scalar types for identifiers, with a specific type for each kind of object.

For more information, read about Scalar Types on graphql.org.

Any

Boolean

Represents true or false values.

ID

Represents a unique identifier that is Base64 obfuscated. It is often used to refetch an object or as key for a cache. The ID type appears in a JSON response as a String; however, it is not intended to be human-readable. When expected as an input type, any string (such as "VXNlci0xMA==") or integer (such as 4) input value will be accepted as an ID.

Int

Represents non-fractional signed whole numeric values. Int can represent values between -(2^31) and 2^31 - 1.

Map

String

Represents textual data as UTF-8 character sequences. This type is most often used by GraphQL to represent free-form human-readable text.

Time

Input types

Types that may be used as arguments (all scalar types may also be used as arguments).

Only general use input types are listed here. For mutation input types, see the associated mutation type above.

For more information, read about Scalar Types on graphql.org.
