About:
GraphQL Inspector is a comprehensive toolset for GraphQL schema management and operations validation. It detects breaking changes, deprecated fields, and schema variations to ensure API stability. The tool integrates into CI/CD pipelines to provide automated alerts and detailed reports on schema evolution.
Key Features:
  • Schema change detection and breaking change alerts
  • Operation and query validation against schema
  • Schema coverage analysis for unused types and fields
  • GitHub and CI/CD integration for automated checks
  • CLI and programmatic API usage
Use Cases:
  • Preventing breaking API changes in production GraphQL schemas
  • Validating client operations during CI builds
  • Auditing schema usage and identifying dead code
  • Automated schema change notifications for team collaboration
Alternatives:
  • Apollo Schema Validation – Apollo offers managed schema registry and validation but requires Studio subscription; GraphQL Inspector is open-source and self-hosted.
  • GraphQL Code Generator – Code Generator focuses on type safety and SDK generation; Inspector focuses on schema validation and change detection.
