The API & GraphQL explained

The Nexar API is built on GraphQL, an open-source data query and manipulation language for APIs, and a server for fulfilling queries with data. GraphQL makes all data requested available at a single endpoint, keeps your requests fast, and returns only the information you need. Nexar’s latest specs allows for customization, and gives you the opportunity to practice queries in the Playground. Access the Altium ecosystem, including supply chain data from Octopart, design data from Altium 365, and manufacturing services from Altimade.
