What is Hygraph Studio and how does it differ from Hygraph Classic?
Hygraph Studio is the new, intuitive interface for managing content in Hygraph, designed for maximum performance and usability. It offers features such as localization, content duplication, custom views, and groups, enabling teams to work independently, launch faster, and drive engagement. Studio will eventually become the default interface for all content editing needs. Hygraph Classic remains available, and users can switch between both interfaces without losing any capabilities. Note: Some features like scheduled publishing, version comparison, commenting, and notifications are not yet available in Studio and require switching to Classic temporarily. Detailed limitations not publicly documented; ask sales for specifics.
When will Hygraph Studio become the default interface for all users?
Beginning July 03, 2026, Hygraph Studio is rolling out as the default experience for Free and Self-service plans. The rollout is gradual, so depending on your region, it may take a few days for Studio and its features to become visible in your projects. Enterprise customers will continue using Classic for now, with migration planning supported by Customer Success Managers. There is no immediate pressure to switch for enterprise users. Note: Timelines may vary by region and plan; check with your Customer Success Manager for specifics.
Can I switch between Hygraph Studio and Classic interfaces?
Yes, you can switch between Hygraph Studio and Classic at any time without losing any capabilities. Both interfaces are available during the transition period, allowing users to access features not yet available in Studio by temporarily switching to Classic. Note: Some advanced features (scheduled publishing, version comparison, commenting, notifications) are currently only available in Classic.
Features & Capabilities
What new features are available in Hygraph Studio?
Hygraph Studio includes several newly added features: Localization for managing translations across multiple global sites, Content Duplication to speed up content entry creation, and Custom Views and Groups for editors to quickly find relevant content. These features are designed to improve efficiency and consistency in content management. Note: Scheduled publishing, version comparison, commenting, and notifications are not yet available in Studio but are planned for future releases.
Does Hygraph Studio support localization and translation workflows?

What are the limitations of Hygraph Studio compared to Classic?
Currently, Hygraph Studio does not support scheduled publishing, version comparison, commenting and assignment workflows, or notifications. These features are available in Classic and are planned for future inclusion in Studio. Users needing these capabilities should temporarily switch to Classic. Note: Feature roadmap and timelines are subject to change; contact support for updates.

Since launching Hygraph Studio in beta, we’ve received valuable feedback and suggestions from our user community.
Over the past few months, we have released numerous features and improvements for Studio.
And now, Hygraph Studio is ready for the spotlight once again. Beginning July 03, we’re excited to launch Studio in Early Availability (EA), and it will eventually become the default interface for managing content in Hygraph.
What this means for Free and Self-service plans
As we roll out in EA over the next few days, Free and Self-service users will land in Studio as the default experience when opening the Hygraph app.
Hygraph Classic will remain available as usual, and you can switch between both experiences without losing any capabilities.
What this means for Enterprise plans
There will be no immediate changes to the experience for enterprise customers within Hygraph.

Studio is the new intuitive experience for working with content in Hygraph. It offers new features and has been redesigned for maximum performance to help your teams create, manage, and publish content faster!
Studio helps you:
Work independently and launch faster
Save time building with reusable components
Stay consistent while publishing content everywhere
Drive engagement with faster applications
Empower your developers to be more productive
Give developers the flexibility to speed up deployment
Over the past few months, we have released numerous features to Studio, first focusing on the most popular ones.
However, there are still a few features that are yet to make their way into Studio:
Scheduled Publishing
Version comparison
Commenting and Assignment Workflows
Notifications
At this time, you will need to temporarily switch to Classic for these capabilities, but our team is working very hard toward adding these to Studio very soon.
Beginning July 03, rollout will be gradual as we transition all projects (except Enterprise) to a default Hygraph Studio experience. Hence, depending on your region, it might take a few days for these features and the recent changes to be visible in your projects.
Even though Classic is still available, we recommend using Studio as your default editing interface, provide feedback and help us improve as we prepare for General Availability.
