Fauna GraphQL API

The Fauna GraphQL API allows developers to interact with their Fauna databases using standard GraphQL queries and mutations. By uploading a GraphQL schema, Fauna automatically generates the necessary collections, indexes, and resolvers. This API can be used from any programming language or HTTP client without requiring a dedicated Fauna driver. It provides an alternative to FQL for developers who prefer the GraphQL query paradigm and ecosystem tooling.

Fauna GraphQL API is one of 9 APIs that Fauna publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Database, GraphQL, Query Language, and Serverless. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

This API exposes 1 operation across 1 path, and defines 4 schemas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.2.0, at version 1.

Requests are made against a single base URL, https://db.fauna.com.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Fauna GraphQL API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
