EdgeDB GraphQL API
EdgeDB (rebranded as Gel in 2025) exposes a GraphQL API that automatically reflects your database schema as a full CRUD API. Every object type, computed property, link, and alias defined in your EdgeDB schema is mirrored into the GraphQL schema, providing queries, mutations, and introspection without any manual schema authoring. To enable the GraphQL API, add `using extension graphql;` to your EdgeDB schema and apply a migration.
