Naming queries in Apollo Studio Sandbox

Help
1

I love the new look and abilities of the Apollo Graphql playground (in Studio). However, I need to name my queries so I can organize them. All the tabs in the query workspace are “Unnamed” and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to name them. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

BTW, this is a make or break thing for me. I’ve been forced to use the older version of graphql playground for my testing purposes.

Hello! The name of a tab in the Explorer reflects the name of the topmost operation you define in that tab’s editor. If the topmost operation is anonymous, then the tab’s title is “Unnamed”:

# ✅ Operation has name, tab will be named "GetBooks"
query GetBooks {
  books {
    title
  }
}

# ❌ Anonymous operation, tab will be named "Unnamed"
query {
  books {
    title
  }
}

OMG. That makes so much sense. Thank you so much.

In the old playground the name on the tab was the name of the resolver that was being called. That’s why I was confused. :slight_smile:

Cheers,

Denise

Hey! You can also see how we use operation collections for the GraphOS public API at Apollo. (@StephenBarlow created those. :smiley: )
