GraphQL API Development

Development or extension of GraphQL APIs with schemas, queries, mutations and access rules appropriate to the approved application architecture.

From $200 · 2-6 weeks

Overview

We define types and relationships that reflect your domain, implement resolvers against your databases or existing services, and add field-level authorization where data sensitivity requires it. Attention goes to query depth limits, batching to avoid N+1 database calls, and clear error handling for clients. The result is a schema and server code in your repository, tests for key queries and mutations, and documentation your frontend team can explore through introspection.

Benefits

  • Clients fetch exactly the data needed

  • Single typed schema across data sources

  • Field-level access control

  • Fewer round trips for frontend apps

What's included

  • Schema design
  • Resolver development
  • Security layer
  • Documentation

Typical use cases

  • Frontend needing flexible data from many sources
  • Mobile apps sensitive to payload size
  • Unifying several REST services behind one schema
  • Extending an existing GraphQL API with new types
  • Dashboards combining related entities in one query

How it works

  1. Schema design based on domain entities
  2. Resolver implementation and data source wiring
  3. Authorization rules and query limits
  4. Performance checks for batching and depth
  5. Tests, documentation and handover

What we need from you

  • Description of entities and their relationships
  • Access to databases or upstream services
  • Authentication method and user roles
  • Existing schema or codebase, if extending

Service FAQ

Yes. Resolvers can call existing REST services, so you can introduce a unified GraphQL layer without rewriting the underlying backend.
