4 Steps to a Successful GraphQL API Program - Lucy Shen, Suresh Muthu & Jared Cheney, Intuit This session provides a concise and practical guide for businesses looking to create a successful GraphQL API program. Attendees will learn about the key components required to develop a well-defined and well-governed API program, including API specifications, governance and consistency, dev community & help, and closed-loop feedback. While there are a lot of guidelines and best practices for REST APIs in the industry, there are not yet as many guidelines for GraphQL. Intuit made over 56 million transactions with GraphQL over the 2023 tax peak season, and that number will only get larger from here. GraphQL adoption at this scale required us to build a robust API program with a centralized set of guidelines on how the schema should be composed, along with a community-driven review process and a firm but flexible governance framework. In this session, we will share insights and lessons learned using real-life examples from our GraphQL API Program, enabling attendees to apply these learnings to their own businesses. This session offers a valuable opportunity for businesses to develop their API programs and stay competitive. GraphQL is a query language for APIs and a runtime for fulfilling those queries with your existing data. GraphQL provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need and nothing more, makes it easier to evolve APIs over time, and enables powerful developer tools.
