Using API Explorer for GraphQL APIs

API Explorer is available in the Boomi Platform and allows you to query metrics data using GraphQL API endpoints from the Boomi Platform instead of from third-party tools such as Postman and Altair.

note
  • API Explorer is currently available as an early access feature. You must enable the feature in Settings > Preferences.
  • At this time, API Explorer only supports GraphQL APIs. API Explorer does not currently support SOAP and REST APIs.

  1. To launch API Explorer, go to API Explorer in the Boomi Platform.

  2. Add a query to the left side of the graph.

  3. To run the query, select Execute.

    The results provide following options:

    • Prettify - GraphQL formatter that retains the original query.
    • Merge - Flattens a query with defined fragments.
    • Copy - Copies the query content.
    • History - Opens the History panel.
    • Documentation Explorer - Searches the schema to provide a root type for each operation.
