Schema-aware autocomplete and lint warnings
Cmd-click navigation to Docs Explorer
Response panes with JSON and table views
Request tracing and query log

Execution history in localStorage
Saved Queries panel with share links

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WPGraphQL IDE

The plugin adds three entry points: a dedicated admin page under GraphQL → GraphQL IDE, a slide-up drawer triggered from the GraphQL IDE link in the admin bar (works on every wp-admin and front-end page), and an opt-in public endpoint mode that renders the IDE when you visit the GraphQL endpoint URL in a browser.

No — the IDE works as a standalone GraphQL client without it. Smart Cache is optional but unlocks the saved-document features: the Saved Queries panel, personal collections, share links, and the Document Settings drawer. Install Smart Cache and the IDE detects it automatically; no configuration needed.

5.0 rebuilds the UI on @wordpress/components and CodeMirror 6, moves saved-document storage onto Smart Cache's graphql_document post type, and ships full internationalization. Extension authors should consult UPGRADE-5.0.md (bundled with the plugin) — several legacy hooks were renamed, and a few were briefly removed and then restored with improved behavior. Open tabs and query history saved by 4.x are migrated forward automatically on first 5.0 load.

Under GraphQL → IDE Settings, check Public IDE at GraphQL endpoint. Once enabled, browser visits to the GraphQL endpoint URL (with an HTML Accept header) render the IDE shell instead of returning JSON. API clients (curl, fetch with Content-Type: application/json, GraphQL clients in general) keep getting JSON as before. Optionally enable Allow sign-in on the public IDE to surface a sign-in prompt to anonymous visitors.

The non-compressed source code for the JavaScript and CSS files is available in the following directories: Scripts: src/ directory Styles: styles/ directory You can view or download the source code directly from the GitHub repository.

CodeMirror 6 (codemirror.net) — the editor surface, with cm6-graphql for schema-aware GraphQL highlighting + autocomplete @wordpress/components and @wordpress/data — UI primitives and state management @graphiql/toolkit — fragment-merging utilities reused from the GraphiQL project vaul (github.com/emilkowalski/vaul) — the slide-up drawer graphql-js (github.com/graphql/graphql-js) — the underlying GraphQL parser

WPGraphQL IDE uses the Appsero SDK to collect telemetry data only after user consent. This helps improve the plugin while respecting user privacy. When telemetry is enabled, the same payloads are also mirrored to WPGraphQL-operated infrastructure at https://telemetry.wpgraphql.com.
