To reformat the result in GraphQL, you can use GraphQL query directives and fragments to shape the data returned by the query. Here are some ways to reformat the result in GraphQL:

  1. Use selection sets to specify which fields you want to include in the result. By selecting only the necessary fields, you can limit the amount of data returned in the result.
  2. Use query directives like @include and @skip to conditionally include or exclude fields based on certain criteria.
  3. Use aliases to rename fields in the result. Aliases allow you to give a different name to a field in the result, making it easier to read and work with the data.
  4. Use fragments to define reusable sets of fields that can be included in multiple queries. Fragments help to keep your queries DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) and make it easier to maintain your code.
  5. Use pagination arguments like first, last, after, and before to paginate the result and retrieve a specific subset of data.


By using these techniques, you can effectively format the result in GraphQL to meet your specific requirements and optimize the performance of your queries.
