SWAPI GraphQL

Overview

SWAPI GraphQL exposes Star Wars data as a GraphQL API — keyless.

Note (verified 2026-08): the URL 308-redirects to /swapi-graphql/ (HTTP 200) — follow redirects (curl -L).

Quick Start

GraphQL query (follow the redirect):

curl -L -X POST "https://graphql.org/swapi-graphql/" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "{ allPeople { people { name } } }"}'

{ "data": { "allPeople": { "people": [ { "name": "Luke Skywalker" } ] } } }

Authentication

None — keyless.
