Hi there @nkekre ! I’m happy to help you troubleshoot this error.

Had you run npm install in the repository’s server directory prior to running npm install @apollo/datasource-rest?

It looks like the main issue here is that the @apollo/datasource-rest package requires that the graphql package have a version of 16.5.0 or higher. When you open up the server/package.json file, can you tell me what version of graphql you have listed there?

I believe that if we update the version to the below, and try running npm install again, we might be able to get around this problem!

"graphql": "^16.6.0",

Looking forward to hearing back from you!
