Does Apollo Client have future plans to merge multiple queries / fragments into a single query like relay? Or is there a tool out there that can do this? I know about the batch link, but that isn’t the same as merging queries into one. Thanks in advance!

Hi! We’re actually working on a `useFragment` hook for the 3.5 release. There isn’t anything formal written up yet, but you can see some of the thinking here: [Feature: useFragment hook · Issue #8236 · apollographql/apollo-client · GitHub](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/issues/8236)

Was this functionality actually added along with `useQuery`? It’s very difficult to tell [reading the docs](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/data/fragments/#example), as the Example doesn’t specify what the `useQuery` looks like after migrating from interpolated fragments to `useFragment`, and the [Best Practices](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/data/operation-best-practices#query-only-the-data-you-need-where-you-need-it) still recommend multiple queries instead of one single query.

Hello,  
Apollo Client doesn’t have immediate plans to merge multiple queries or fragments into a single query similar to Relay’s approach. While the batch link can group requests, it doesn’t consolidate them into one query.
