GraphQL - Queries

Which of the following is the correct GraphQL query syntax to request only the name and age fields of a user?

A{ user name age }

B{ user: name, age }

Cquery user { name, age }

D{ user { name age } }

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Recall GraphQL query structure
A query requests a field (like user) and inside braces lists requested subfields.
Step 2: Check each option's syntax
{ user { name age } } correctly nests name and age inside user. Others have syntax errors or wrong structure.
Final Answer:
{ user { name age } } -> Option D
Quick Check:
Correct nesting = { user { name age } } [OK]

Quick Trick: Fields must be inside braces after the parent field [OK]
