Launching a Public GraphQL API and Client for Open Source Lightning Web Components - Ben Sklar, Salesforce Learn how and why Salesforce decided to launch a public GraphQL API. You will learn about best practices, real world use cases, hear success stories, failures, challenges, and overall lessons learned from a real production deployment of a GraphQL API. This API is unique in that every user of the API may have different views of the schema due to a strict field-level and object-level security model. You'll also get to hear about upcoming new features to the API, and how you can leverage this API with our open source Lightning Web Components framework, allowing you to insert GraphQL queries directly with Lightning Web Components. 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.
