I cannot mutate a list of objects completely, because only the last element of the array will be mutated.
What already works perfectly is, if I put each element ({play_positions_id: ...}) in the array manually like here:
mutation CreateProfile {
__typename
create_profiles_item(data: {status: "draft", play_positions: [{play_positions_id: {id: "1"}}, {play_positions_id: {id: "2"}}]}) {
id
status
play_positions {
play_positions_id {
abbreviation
name
}
}
}
}
Output:
{
"data": {
"__typename": "Mutation",
"create_profiles_item": {
"id": "1337",
"status": "draft",
"play_positions": [
{
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "1",
"abbreviation": "RWB",
"name": "Right Wingback"
}
},
{
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "2",
"abbreviation": "CAM",
"name": "Central Attacking Midfielder"
}
}
],
}
}
}
Since you can add many of those elements, I defined a variable/argument like here
mutation CreateProfile2($cpppi: [create_profiles_play_positions_input]) {
__typename
create_profiles_item(data: {status: "draft", play_positions: $cpppi}) {
id
status
play_positions {
play_positions_id {
id
abbreviation
name
}
}
}
}
Variable object for above:
"cpppi": {
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "1"
},
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "2
}
}
Output:
{
"data": {
"__typename": "Mutation",
"create_profiles_item": {
"id": "1338",
"play_positions": [
{
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "2",
"abbreviation": "CAM",
"name": "Central Attacking Midfielder"
}
}
],
}
}
}
Schema:
input create_profiles_input {
id: ID
status: String!
play_positions: [create_profiles_play_positions_input]
}
input create_profiles_play_positions_input {
id: ID
play_positions_id: create_play_positions_input
}
input create_play_positions_input {
id: ID
abbreviation: String
name: String
}
At the last both snippets, only the last object with the id "2" will be mutated. I need these to use the defined input type from my backend.
I figured it out. I got it wrong with the brackets in the variable. Here the solution:
"cpppi": [
{
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "1"
}
},
{
"play_positions_id": {
"id": "2"
}
}
]
