Apollo GraphQL MCP for Draftbit

Enable graph-based API orchestration with AI

What is Apollo GraphQL?

Apollo MCP Server provides a standard way for AI models to access and orchestrate your GraphQL APIs. Translates GraphQL operations into MCP tools that AI models can discover and use. Supports persisted queries, schema introspection, and maintains full security control.

Use Apollo GraphQL with Draftbit

  • Enable graph-based API orchestration with AI.
  • Available to every AI agent run inside your Draftbit app.
  • Auth and tokens stay scoped to your app — no manual wiring on each agent run.
  • Covers graphql, api, orchestration, apollo workflows.

Example

mcp-config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apollo-graphql": {
      "url": "https://your-apollo-graphql-instance.example.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APOLLO_GRAPHQL_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Use cases

  • Query exactly the fields a screen needs and nothing more
  • Compose data from multiple sources in a single round trip
  • Subscribe to live updates over a single GraphQL endpoint

Authentication

Authentication is a single header you paste once in Draftbit. Your token stays scoped to the app.

Apollo GraphQL is instance-specific — you'll paste your own Apollo GraphQL URL when you connect it. Draftbit doesn't host the server for you.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Apollo GraphQL MCP?

Apollo MCP Server provides a standard way for AI models to access and orchestrate your GraphQL APIs. Translates GraphQL operations into MCP tools that AI models can discover and use. Supports persisted queries, schema introspection, and maintains full security control.

How do I connect the Apollo GraphQL MCP to Draftbit?

Open your Draftbit app, go to Integrations and then MCPs, find Apollo GraphQL in the preconfigured list, and add it. Apollo GraphQL runs per instance, so you paste your own Apollo GraphQL URL when Draftbit asks for it. Once you have authenticated, the AI agents working in your app can use the Apollo GraphQL tools right away.

Does Draftbit support Apollo GraphQL's authentication?

Yes. Draftbit connects to the Apollo GraphQL MCP using an API key sent as a header. The credentials stay scoped to your app and never appear in generated code.

What can I build with Apollo GraphQL and Draftbit?

Most teams bring Apollo GraphQL in as a GraphQL service behind a mobile or web app. You might use Apollo GraphQL to query exactly the fields a screen needs and nothing more, or to compose data from multiple sources in a single round trip. The MCP tools are for the build itself. While a chat thread is active, the AI agents in Draftbit can call Apollo GraphQL directly.
