Run GraphQL operations

Head over to AWS AppSync using the AWS Management Console, and open the deployed API.

Next, from the sidebar, click on Queries. Let's execute a getDateTime query and a pong mutation.

Execute Query.getDateTime

Operation

# GraphQL operation for the
#   Query.getDateTime resolver
query {
    getDateTime
}

Result

{
  "data": {
    "getDateTime": "2021-12-30 08:56:26+0000"
  }
}

Execute Mutation.pong

Operation

# GraphQL operation for the
#   Mutation.pong resolver
mutation {
    pong(word: "I am groot")
}

Result

{
    "data": {
        "pong": "toorg ma I"
    }
}
