In GraphQL, you can define the relationships between types in your schema using fields and directives such as @relation. When querying for related data, you can use these defined relationships in your GraphQL query.


For example, if you have a schema that defines a User type with a field called posts that represents a one-to-many relationship with Post type, you can query for a user's posts like this:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
query {
  user(id: "123") {
    name
    posts {
      title
      content
    }
  }
}


In this query, you are fetching the name of the user with id "123" and then fetching the title and content of the posts that are related to that user.


To get related data in your GraphQL query, you need to traverse the relationships between types in your schema by using nested fields in your query. Make sure to define the relationships in your schema and use them appropriately in your queries to fetch the related data.
