Learning to use GraphQL with AEM - Sample Content and Queries learn-graphql-with-aem-sample-content-queries

Learn to use GraphQL with AEM so you can serve content headlessly by exploring sample content and queries.

To get started with GraphQL queries, and how they work with AEM Content Fragments, it helps to see some practical examples.

To help with this see:

GraphQL - Sample Queries using the Sample Content Fragment Structure graphql-sample-queries-sample-content-fragment-structure

See these sample queries for illustrations of create queries, together with sample results.

NOTE
Depending on your instance, you can directly access the GraphiQL interface included with AEM GraphQL API for submitting and testing queries.
You can access the query editor from either:
  • Tools > General > GraphQL Query Editor
  • directly; for example, http://localhost:4502/aem/graphiql.html
NOTE
The sample queries are based on the Sample Content Fragment Structure for use with GraphQL
