Extend remote GraphQL APIs with Edge Resolvers

Grafbase now supports extending remote GraphQL APIs with Edge Resolvers — learn more.

Get started by connecting a remote GraphQL API:


import { config, connector, g } from '@grafbase/sdk'

const contentful = connector.GraphQL('Contentful', {
  url: g.env('CONTENTFUL_API_URL'),
  headers: headers => {
    headers.set('Authorization', `Bearer ${g.env('CONTENTFUL_API_KEY')}`)
  },
})

g.datasource(contentful)

Then all that's left to do is to extend a type generated by the GraphQL connector that is resolved using your custom file:


import { g } from '@grafbase/sdk'

g.extend('ContentfulAsset', {
  myField: {
    args: { myArg: g.string().optional() },
    returns: g.string().optional(),
    resolver: 'file',
  },
})

You can also use args on fields for use inside the Edge Resolver:


export default function MyFieldResolver({ sys { id: assetId } }, { myArg }) {
  return `${assetId} ${myArg}`
}
