An enumeration (or enum) in Hygraph is a type used to group predefined values within a model. Enums are useful for filtering and defining specific content entries, such as categorizing products as Digital or Physical. Enum values can only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores. Learn more.
You can create, use, and delete enumerations in Hygraph through the UI. Detailed guides are available for each action: Create an enumeration, Use a demo enumeration, Delete an enumeration, and Add an enumeration to a model.
You can fetch all possible values of an enumeration via GraphQL using your project's API endpoint. For example, to fetch values for the COMMODITY enum, use the following query:
{
__type(name: "COMMODITY") {
enumValues {
name
}
}
}
For more details, see the documentation.
