Kaizen #153: Interpreting Zoho CRM GraphQL schema



Hello everyone!
Welcome back to the Kaizen series!
In this week's post in the Kaizen series, we will discuss interpreting Zoho CRM GraphQL schema using schema explorer in Postman.  

What is GraphQL Schema?

A GraphQL schema is a comprehensive definition that outlines the types, queries, mutations, and subscriptions available in the API. A type in GraphQL is a definition that specifies the structure of data by detailing the fields and their corresponding data types that can be queried or manipulated. Note that currently Zoho CRM GraphQL supports only query operation. Schema specifies the capabilities of the server i.e. what the server can do, including the types of data it has and the actions you can perform like asking for information (query). 
To start with, make sure that you have obtained the necessary authorization and enabled GraphQL for your profile.
