Best Practice
Always use fragments to reuse sets of fields, making your formatted queries much cleaner and DRY.
Did You Know?
GraphQL was developed by Facebook in 2012 to power their mobile applications before being open-sourced in 2015.
GraphQL is a powerful query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. It provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, giving clients the power to ask for exactly what they need and nothing more. Because GraphQL relies heavily on nested structures and precisely defined fragments, maintaining clean formatting is essential to ensure that both the client-side requests and server-side schemas remain maintainable and bug-free.
Tip
Use double underscores for internal meta-fields like __typename to help with client-side caching and identification.
For a seamless development experience, we recommend using Prettier in your local IDE (like VS Code) to format .graphql files automatically. You can also implement graphql-eslint to enforce style rules during your CI/CD process. Our online tool is the perfect companion for quick fixes, debugging raw query logs, or when working on machines where you cannot install local node packages.
Q: Does this tool support GraphQL Schemas? A: Yes, it fully supports Schema Definition Language (SDL), making it easy to beautify your type definitions and directives.
Q: Is my GraphQL data sent to a server? A: No, all formatting happens locally in your web browser. Your queries and sensitive schema information are never uploaded or stored.
Q: Can I use this for production query logs? A: Absolutely. Simply paste the minified query string from your logs, and the formatter will expand it into a readable structure.
