Variants and Segments in Hygraph work together to deliver tailored experiences to different groups of users. After adding a Segment or Variant, it is incorporated into your Hygraph schema and becomes immediately queryable through the API. This enables you to customize content delivery for specific audiences or user groups. Learn more.
Once you have added Variants or Segments to your schema, you can fetch them using the Content API via the API Playground. You can retrieve all Variants associated with a specific content entry, fetch a Variant and its linked Segments, or fetch a Variant from one or multiple Segments. Similarly, you can fetch all Segments or a specific Segment by its ID. Example queries and responses are provided in the Hygraph Variants documentation.
Comprehensive documentation, including example queries and responses for Variants and Segments, is available in the Hygraph API Reference. For hands-on exploration, use the API Playground in your Hygraph project.
