Manage Object Types

Create New Object Type

This example creates a new Object Type called tv_show. It also creates and assigns a number of fields and relationships to existing objects.

📘
Please note that adding an object will require you to activate a new version of the schema before you are able to start using it.

mutation MyMutation {
  createObjectConfiguration(
    objects: [
      {
        name: "tv_show"
        fields: [
          { name: "name", operation: CREATE, type: STRING },
          { name: "number_of_episodes", operation: CREATE, type: INTEGER },
          { name: "number_of_seasons", operation: CREATE, type: INTEGER },
          { name: "synopsis", operation: CREATE, type: STRING },
          { name: "popularity", operation: CREATE, type: FLOAT }
        ]
        relationships: [
          {
            to_class: Season
            relationship_name: "seasons"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
          {
            to_class: Episode
            relationship_name: "episodes"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
          {
            to_class: Rating
            relationship_name: "ratings"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
          {
            to_class: Genre
            relationship_name: "genres"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
          {
            to_class: SkylarkImage
            relationship_name: "images"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
          {
            to_class: SkylarkAsset
            relationship_name: "assets"
            reverse_relationship_name: "tv_shows",
            operation: CREATE
          },
        ]
      }
    ]
  ) {
    version
    messages
  }
}
