Frequently Asked Questions
Taxonomy Features & Capabilities
What taxonomy models can I create with Hygraph?
Hygraph supports multiple taxonomy models, including flat taxonomy and two-level taxonomy models. The flat taxonomy model allows you to organize content in a single-level structure, while the two-level taxonomy model enables you to define parent categories with reference fields for related sub-categories. For more details, see the Flat Taxonomy model and Two-level taxonomy model guides. Note: Advanced taxonomy features may require contacting the sales team for access.
Are taxonomy features built-in or do I need to configure them manually?
Taxonomies are now available natively in Hygraph, eliminating the need for manual configuration. This simplifies content organization and ensures consistency across your schema. For access to advanced taxonomy features, contact the Hygraph sales team. Note: Some features may not be available on all plans; check plan details for limitations.
What is the Taxonomy Cookbook and how can I use it?
The Taxonomy Cookbook is a cloneable Hygraph project containing all taxonomy recipes, allowing you to compare models or examine their contents without following step-by-step tutorials. You can clone the project directly from the Taxonomy Cookbook clone link. Note: The UI in the cookbook may differ from individual recipe tutorials, as it reflects multiple recipes. Plan limits may affect your ability to add recipes to your own project.
