Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about converting data to GraphQL schemas.

How do I convert JSON to a GraphQL schema?

Paste your data into the left editor pane. The tool instantly generates the corresponding GraphQL SDL (Schema Definition Language) in the right pane, with correctly inferred scalar types and nested object structures. No sign-up or server required.

What GraphQL scalar types do JSON values map to?

JSON strings map to String, integers to Int, floating-point numbers to Float, booleans to Boolean, and null values to a nullable String field. Nested objects become named types, and arrays become list fields.

Can I generate GraphQL types from nested JSON?

Yes. The tool recursively processes nested structures, creating a separate type for each nested object with PascalCase names derived from the key. Arrays of objects produce a list field with the inferred item type.

Is my JSON data secure when using this tool?

Completely. Everything runs in your browser — your data is never sent to any server. No information is stored, logged, or transmitted anywhere.

What is GraphQL SDL?

SDL (Schema Definition Language) is the human-readable syntax for defining a GraphQL schema. It describes types, fields, queries, mutations, and subscriptions. SDL files use the .graphql extension and are the standard way to define APIs.

Can I make all fields non-null in the generated schema?

Yes. Enable the Non-null by default toggle in the toolbar. This appends ! to all fields whose JSON value is not null, marking them as required in the GraphQL schema.

What is JSON introspection to GraphQL SDL?

It's the process of analyzing an object's structure and automatically generating a matching GraphQL schema. This tool reads your data shape and outputs ready-to-use type definitions.
