GraphQL Formatter

How to Use the GraphQL Formatter

• Enter your GraphQL: Paste your GraphQL query, mutation, subscription, or schema directly into the input area, or upload a .graphql/.gql file.
• Add variables (optional): If your query uses variables, add them in JSON format in the variables section.
• Configure formatting: Customise indentation, bracket style, argument layout, and other formatting preferences.
• Format or minify: Click "Beautify GraphQL" to format your code or "Minify GraphQL" to compress it for production use.
• Export your GraphQL: Copy the formatted GraphQL to clipboard or download as a .graphql, .gql, or .txt file.

Benefits of Using GraphQL Formatter

• Improved Readability: Well-formatted GraphQL code is easier to read and understand, especially for complex queries with nested selections and fragments.
• Easier Debugging: Properly indented code makes it simpler to identify syntax errors, missing fields, and structural issues in your queries.
• Better Collaboration: Consistent formatting standards help teams work together more effectively on GraphQL API development.
• Reduced Payload Size: Minify your GraphQL queries for production to reduce network payload and improve API performance.
• Schema Documentation: Format your SDL (Schema Definition Language) for clearer documentation and easier schema reviews.
