Connect to Graph

​

Connection strings

A connection string is a URL that contains all of the necessary information to connect to your graph from a Dgraph client or Modus. It is displayed after you deploy your graph.

​

Authentication

Your graph endpoint is protected by bearer token authorization passed in the Authorization header as an API key. You can find your API key in the console alongside your graph connection details. The API key is already included in the connection string.

​

Clients

Dgraph includes a web client and language-specific SDKs for programmatically working with your graph. When using the auto-generated GraphQL API, you can use any GraphQL client to work with your graph.

​

Ratel

Dgraph includes Ratel, a web client for easily connecting to and exploring your graph. Ratel is available hosted at https://ratel.hypermode.com. To connect to your graph, paste your connection string into the Ratel interface and click Connect.

​

Dgraph SDKs

Dgraph SDKs are available for a number of languages, including Go, Python, Java, and JavaScript. The SDKs have been updated to support the connection string for connecting to your graph on Hypermode. Ensure you’re running the latest version of the SDK for your language.

​

GraphQL clients

When working with your graph through the auto-generated GraphQL API, you can use any GraphQL IDE or client to connect to your graph.
