Each GraphQL request has a URL (the data endpoint) and a query (defining the data to retrieve or modify). ## GraphQL request interface GraphQL APIs let clients request only the data they need through a single endpoint. It’s schema-driven, allowing clients to introspect and avoid overfetching or underfetching data. **[Query builder](/send-requests/graphql/query-builder)** is also supported to help you build your queries easily. gql-interface The API schema defines available fields, and the request may include authentication, headers, and settings as needed. GraphQL requests support three operations: * **Query**: Retrieves data, specifying fields and optional arguments for precise results. * **Mutation**: Modifies data (create, update, delete), with specified fields returned after the operation. * **Subscription**: Provides real-time updates by listening for changes to specific data fields over a persistent connection. 1.
