How to generate a GraphQL schema from JSON

Three steps
01

Paste or upload JSON

Add a JSON object or API response to the input panel. Use the sample button to load a realistic user and posts example.

02

Configure schema options

Toggle non-nullable fields, the ID scalar for id fields, an optional Query type, and rename the root type.

03

Copy or download schema

GraphQL types update live as you type. Copy the output or download a ready-to-use .graphql file.

Built for GraphQL developers

Bootstrap your GraphQL schema from existing REST API responses or JSON data models in seconds, then extend with resolvers and custom scalars.

100% client side

Your JSON never leaves the browser. No upload, no server, no logs.

Live generation

GraphQL types update instantly as you type or change options.

Nested types

Nested objects each get their own named type in PascalCase with all fields inferred.

Non-nullable control

Toggle the ! suffix on all fields to match your API's nullability requirements.

ID scalar

Fields named 'id' or ending in 'Id' are automatically mapped to the GraphQL ID scalar.

Download .graphql

Export a complete GraphQL schema file ready to use with Apollo or any GraphQL server.

Paste your JSON object or array into the input panel. GraphQL type definitions are generated instantly. Nested objects become separate named types and arrays of objects produce typed list fields.

GraphQL Schema Generator from JSON Data

This tool infers GraphQL scalar types from JSON values: strings become String, integers become Int, floats become Float, and booleans become Boolean. Fields named id or ending in Id are mapped to the ID scalar. Nested objects generate separate named types in PascalCase. Arrays of objects produce list fields. All types are output in dependency order so nested types appear before the parent types that reference them. Download the result as a .graphql file to use directly with Apollo Server, GraphQL Yoga, or any schema-first GraphQL framework.
