GraphQL requests

Magento GraphQL supports the HTTP GET and POST methods. You can send a query as a GET or POST request. Mutations must be POST requests. You can optionally send a GET query request in a URL. In these requests, you must specify query as the query string. You might need to encode the query, as shown below:

http://<host>/graphql?query=%7Bproducts(filter%3A%7Bsku%3A%7Blike%3A%2224-WB%25%22%7D%7D)%7Bitems%7Bsku%7D%7D%7D

The previous example is equivalent to the following query. You could send the query as either a GET or POST request,

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
{
  products(
    filter: { sku: { like: "24-WB%" } }
  ) {
    items {
      sku
    }
  }
}

Some queries sent as a GET request can be cached. See GraphQL caching for more information.

Request headers

Magento accepts the following headers in a GraphQL request:

Header name Value Description
Authorization Bearer <authorization_token> A customer token. Get customer authorization token describes how to generate the token.
Content-Currency A valid currency code, such as USD This header is required only if the currency is not the store view’s default currency.
Content-Type application/json Required for all requests.
Store <store_view_code> The store view code on which to perform the request. The value can be default or the code that is defined when a store view is created.
