A list of common use case to handle with GraphQL API.

Create a live contribution

To create a live contribution, you have to use CreateLiveContribution mutation.

You have to know the live ID, we use "bG9jYWw6TGl2ZTox" as live ID in this example.

Copy/paste this mutation to Sirius GraphQL Playground and execute it.

mutation CreateLiveContribution(
$liveId: "bG9jYWw6TGl2ZTox"
$text: "I Will Find You And I Will Kill You",
$authorName: "Chris Hardwick",
$authorEmail: "c.hardwick@gmail.com"
) {
createLiveContribution(
input: {
liveId: $liveId
text: $text
authorName: $authorName
authorEmail: $authorEmail
}
) {
id
}
}

Note that we choose to return the id because we have to return at least one field in a GraphQL type.

Query layouts "id" and "names"

To list all layouts, uses articleLayouts query.

The query articleLayouts returns a ArticleLayoutConnection which contains nodes.

Copy/paste this query to Sirius GraphQL Playground and execute it.

query Layouts {
articleLayouts {
nodes {
id
name
}
}
}

The returned data should have the following shape:

{
"data": {
"articleLayouts": {
"nodes": [
{
"id": "bG9jYWw6TGF5b3V0Ojk=",
"name": "Sirius Live"
},
{
"id": "bG9jYWw6TGF5b3V0OjE=",
"name": "Article"
}
]
}
}
}
