Scalars

Boolean, DateTime, Decimal, ID, Int, Name, String​

Boolean​

The Boolean scalar type represents true or false.

DateTime​

The DateTime scalar represents an ISO-8601 compliant date time type.

Decimal​

The built-in Decimal scalar type.

ID​

The ID scalar type represents a unique identifier, often used to prefetch an object or as a key for a cache. The ID type appears in a JSON response as a String; however, it is not intended to be human-readable. When expected as an input type, any string (such as "4") or integer (such as 4) input value will be accepted as an ID.

Int​

The Int scalar type represents non-fractional signed whole numeric values. Int can represent values between -(2^31) and 2^31 - 1.

Name​

The name scalar represents a valid GraphQL name as specified in the spec and can be used to refer to fields or types.

String​

The String scalar type represents textual data, represented as UTF-8 character sequences. The String type is most often used by GraphQL to represent free-form human-readable text.
