Destructuring mutation response

[tettoffensive]

With GraphQL mutations, the data object which comes back is then wrapped in the name of my mutation createItemInDatabase.

---

client:

const mutation = (`
    mutation createNewItem($title: String!) {
       createItemInDatabase(title: $title) {
           name
           description
       }
   }
`);
request(url, mutation).then(({ createItemInDatabase }) => console.log(createItemInDatabase));

---

apollo-micro-server:

type Mutation {
    createItemInDatabase(
      title: String!
    ): Item
}

---

Is there someway to get the name of the mutation in javascript rather than relying on matching what is essentially part of the substring?

(I'm using 2.0.0 btw)

Hi @tettoffensive I'm not part of the graphql-request team, but I believe the behaviour you're seeing is part of the GraphQL spec and not necessarily specific to graphql-request.

Closing this, as this is expected behavior. The data structure is supposed to match the query you provide.
