Update todos - mutation

In this part of the tutorial, you will learn how to mark an existing todo as completed by using GraphQL Mutations.

Let's define a graphql query to do a mutation into todos.

Copy
  mutation toggleTodo ($id: Int!, $isCompleted: Boolean!) {
    update_todos(where: {id: {_eq: $id}}, _set: {is_completed: $isCompleted}) {
      returning {
        id
        title
        created_at
        is_completed
      }
    }
  }

You will also need to pass in the values for the variables.

Try this mutation in GraphiQL against the application database to see what the response looks like.

Let's now integrate this graphql mutation into our app.
