(Part 5/N) Salesforce: Anypoint DataGraph
Salesforce Series: Fundamental concepts of DataGraph
According to MuleSoft Documentation, “Anypoint DataGraph enables you to connect those graphs into one unified schema that runs as a single SaaS GraphQL endpoint and contains and links all of the fields defined within all of your APIs”.
In this podcast episode, Krish explores Salesforce Data Graph and its integration with MuleSoft. He starts by providing an introduction to Salesforce and his personal experience with the platform. He then dives into exploring Data Graph, including authentication policies and custom headers. He demonstrates how to update the unified schema and troubleshoot issues with API and asset versions. He also discusses the fundamental concepts of DataGraph and differentiates it from MuleSoft DataGraph.
Krish goes on to run queries and mutations and discusses real-world use cases for DataGraph. He explores the concept of working with multiple endpoints in GraphQL and how it can be used to integrate multiple APIs. He discusses the potential benefits and challenges of this approach and shares his skepticism until he has had a chance to test it thoroughly. He also explains the unified data graph schema and its promise of simplifying API integration.
Krish concludes the conversation by summarizing the key points discussed and inviting listeners to explore the AWS APIs for their backend needs.
