I don’t want to set a RV in an onComplete of the query. It causes some issues and is clunky. How can I retrieve query results from child components in react without passing a prop. Is using a fieldPolicy to populate an RV with the entire query a best practice?

Hi @crabara 👋 welcome to the community forum! Can you share some more details on what you’re trying to accomplish? FWIW, if you’re initiating Query A in Component A, you can access that data in Component B from the cache via `useQuery` or `useFragment_experimental`.
