Sanity · GraphQL Specification

Sanity GraphQL API

Sanity provides a project-scoped GraphQL API that exposes Content Lake documents as a typed, queryable schema. The API is deployed per-project and per-dataset: you generate and deploy the schema from your Sanity Studio using the CLI (`sanity graphql deploy`), which introspects your studio's schema definitions and produces a GraphQL schema with PascalCase type names (e.g., a `bookAuthor` type becomes `BookAuthor`). For each document type in your schema, two root query fields are generated — `all` for list queries with filtering, sorting, and pagination, and `` for fetching a single document by its `_id`.

For each document type in your schema, two root query fields are generated — all<TypeName> for list queries with filtering, sorting, and pagination, and <TypeName> for fetching a single document by its _id.
