GraphQL 

Connection Details 

All requests to the GraphQL endpoint should be made with the Content-Type header set to application/json, and all responses from the GraphQL endpoint will be returned with the Content-Type response header set to application/json. The openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2 GraphQL API is spec compliant.

To make requests to the Development GraphQL API, use the following URL:

Development GraphQL Endpoint
https://openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2--development.gadget.app/api/graphql

To make requests to the Production GraphQL API, use the following URL:

Production GraphQL Endpoint
https://openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2.gadget.app/api/graphql

Developing using the API Playground 

Gadget serves a web-based request console for easy development of custom or complicated queries at  openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2 GraphQL playground. It's handy for exploring the openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2 API and supports handy features like autocomplete, saved queries, and pretty output formatting.

Connecting with the Gadget API Client 

Gadget generates a type-safe, high-quality npm package that can be used in frontend and backend JavaScript projects for the openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2 API. Find instructions for setting up the API client on the Installing page.

Executing Queries 

With a set up GadgetClient object, you can access data with the .query function. For more information on the return type of the .query method, consult the urql client.query docs.

.query returns a Promise for the data from the API in the same shape that the GraphQL query is written. The response object has the data at the data property.

JavaScript
1const response = await api.query(`
2 query GetAppName {
3 gadgetMeta {
4 slug
5 }
6 }
7`);
8
9console.log(response.data.gadgetMeta.slug);
10// => openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2
1const response = await api.query(`
2 query GetAppName {
3 gadgetMeta {
4 slug
5 }
6 }
7`);
8
9console.log(response.data.gadgetMeta.slug);
10// => openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2

Connecting with fetch 

Gadget's GraphQL API can be used without any wrapper client library in JavaScript by using fetch.

JavaScript
1const result = await fetch(
2 "https://openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2--development.gadget.app/api/graphql",
3 {
4 headers: {
5 accept: "application/json",
6 "content-type": "application/json",
7 },
8 body: JSON.stringify({
9 query: `
10 query GetAppName {
11 gadgetMeta {
12 name
13 }
14 }
15 `,
16 }),
17 method: "POST",
18 }
19);
1const result = await fetch(
2 "https://openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2--development.gadget.app/api/graphql",
3 {
4 headers: {
5 accept: "application/json",
6 "content-type": "application/json",
7 },
8 body: JSON.stringify({
9 query: `
10 query GetAppName {
11 gadgetMeta {
12 name
13 }
14 }
15 `,
16 }),
17 method: "POST",
18 }
19);

Gadget generally recommends using the provided API Client package where possible.

Connecting with cURL 

Gadget's GraphQL API can be used from command line HTTP clients like cURL as well:

terminal
curl 'https://openai-screenwriter-tutorial-v2--development.gadget.app/api/graphql' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'content-type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{"query":"query { gadgetMeta { slug } }"}'
