GraphQL - Type Relationships

Given this GraphQL schema:

type Employee { id: ID! projects: [Project!]! } type Project { id: ID! team: [Employee!]! }

What will happen if you query an Employee's projects and for each project, list all team members?

AThe query will return projects without any team members due to missing resolvers.

BThe query will fail because GraphQL does not support lists within lists.

CThe query will return only the first project for each employee due to list limitations.

DThe query will return nested lists showing each employee's projects and all employees on those projects, potentially causing circular references.

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze the schema
Employee has a list of Projects, and each Project has a list of Employees (team).
Step 2: Understand the query
Querying an Employee's projects and then each project's team will produce nested lists with potential circular references.
Final Answer:
The query will return nested lists showing each employee's projects and all employees on those projects, potentially causing circular references. -> Option D
Quick Check:
Lists within lists are valid in GraphQL and circular references are possible [OK]

Quick Trick: Nested lists can cause circular data but are valid in GraphQL [OK]
