best way to edit the generated graphql aws app sync schema in amplify v2?

[cookiejest]

Environment information

I need to add additional fields into a few of the generated graphql schema endpoints. Speicfically the 'owner' field. This is so I can use them in the backend to correctly sync data to the front end via graphql.

What is the best way to achieve this? I can make the edits directly in appsync console, but feel there should be a way to do this through amplify v2 that I can keep within my ci/cd pipeline.

Description

E.g I want to add a 'owner' field that have not been added automatically for some reason (I think they should be):

input CreateMessageInput {
	type: String
	message: String
	color: String
	runId: ID
	promptId: ID
	id: ID
	owner: String
}

This way i can use the graphql directly from my backend outside of amplify and have it stay in sync with the amplify v2 on the real time updates.

Hey @cookiejest, Thanks for raising this. Could you please share your full schema?

[cookiejest]

i think my problem is i did not include a owner field in the schema itself (I thought it would be auto populated but it was not). Once I added the field the owner the app sync was then correct with owner included.

  Message: a
    .model({
      type: a.string(),
      message: a.string(),
      color: a.string(),
      runId: a.id(),
      promptId: a.id(),
      owner: a.string(),
      run: a.belongsTo('Run', 'runId'),
      prompt: a.belongsTo('Prompt', 'promptId')
    })
    .authorization((allow) => [allow.owner()])
