Authgear provides a GraphQL API that you can use to manage users and other resources right from your application or using the GraphiQL Explorer in Authgear Portal > Advanced > Admin API .
The following section shows a detailed description and examples of supported queries and mutations.
1. Queries
1.1. auditLogs
The auditLogs query returns a list of all activities (logs) from the audit log.
Schema:
Copy auditLogs(
first: Int
last: Int
userIDs: [ID!]
sortDirection: SortDirection
before: String
after: String
rangeFrom: DateTime
rangeTo: DateTime
activityTypes: [AuditLogActivityType!]
): AuditLogConnection
Example:
Copy query {
auditLogs(first: 4) {
edges {
node {
id
activityType
createdAt
}
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"auditLogs": {
"edges": [
{
"node": {
"activityType": "USER_AUTHENTICATED",
"createdAt": "2023-09-11T09:23:51Z",
"id": "QXVkaXRMb2c6MDAwMDAwMDAwMDA0ZDVjOQ"
}
}
]
}
}
}
1.2. users
You can use this query to fetch all registered users on your application. The users query returns a list of type User.
Schema:
Copy users(
first: Int
last: Int
searchKeyword: String
sortBy: UserSortBy
sortDirection: SortDirection
before: String
after: String
): UserConnection
Example:
Copy query {
users(first: 2) {
edges {
node {
id
standardAttributes
}
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"users": {
"edges": [
{
"node": {
"id": "VXNlcjo4ZGM4ZDgyjjkoKA0LTRjZGEtODZiOC03OTY4MGUwYzA5OGM",
"standardAttributes": {
"email": "myuser@gmail.com",
"email_verified": true,
"family_name": "John",
"given_name": "Doe",
"updated_at": 1686820949
}
}
},
{
"node": {
"id": "VXNlcjplMzA3OTAyaxKJuILTRjMjQtOTFjMS1jMmNkNjNhNmE0YWY",
"standardAttributes": {
"email": "user2@gmail.com",
"email_verified": true,
"family_name": "Eliano",
"given_name": "Don",
"updated_at": 1694359032
}
}
}
]
}
}
}
1.3. node
Schema:
Example:
You can specify different object types to the node query to fetch an item of that type. Examples of node Types include User
, AuditLog
, Session
, Authenticator
, Authorization
, and Identity
.
The following example uses the AuditLog node type.
Copy query {
node(id: "QXVkaXRMb2c6MDAwHJKwMDAwMDA0ZDViOQ") {
id
... on AuditLog {
id
activityType
createdAt
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"node": {
"activityType": "USER_AUTHENTICATED",
"createdAt": "2023-09-11T09:23:51Z",
"id": "QXVkaXRMb2c6MDAwHJKwMDAwMDA0ZDViOQ"
}
}
}
1.4. nodes
The nodes query returns a list of nodes. This works similarly to the node query except that instead of supplying a single ID, you can provide a list of IDs for the objects you are querying for.
Schema:
Copy nodes(ids: [ID!]!): [Node]!
Example:
Copy query {
nodes(ids: ["<NODE ID1>","<NODE ID2>"]) {
id
... on AuditLog {
id
activityType
createdAt
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"nodes": [
{
"activityType": "USER_AUTHENTICATED",
"createdAt": "2023-09-11T09:23:51Z",
"id": "QXKytXRMb4n6MDAwMDAwMDAwMDA0ZDVjUK"
},
{
"activityType": "USER_PROFILE_UPDATED",
"createdAt": "2023-09-14T06:57:27Z",
"id": "QXVkaXABb7c6MDAwMDAwMDAwMDA0ZGKkZA"
}
]
}
}
2. Mutations
With mutations, you can modify data from your application using the Admin API GraphQL. For example, you can use mutation to update
2.1. anonymizeUser
Calling this mutation will change a specific user account to an anonymous account. In other words, this query anonymizes a specific user. This action will delete the user's data like name and gender.
Schema:

Example:
Copy mutation {
anonymizeUser(input: {userID: "<ENCODED USER ID>"}) {

2.20. updateUser
You can use this mutation to update an existing user's details. You can update standard attributes such as email and phone for the user. Or you can modify custom fields using the customAttributes
argument.
Schema:
Copy updateUser(input: UpdateUserInput!): UpdateUserPayload!
Example 1 (Standard Attributes):
For this updateUser
example, we will be updating the standard attributes for a user. The first thing to do is to extract all the current values of the user's standard attributes into a variable. Then, add new fields or modify existing fields in the variable with new values.
Note: It is important to include the current values of the fields that you don't wish to update but still want to keep. The Admin API will delete any existing fields you omit in the variable.
The following block of code shows an example variable. If you're using GraphiQL, simply create the variable in the variable tab of GraphiQL like this:
Copy {
"standardAttributes": {
"family_name": "John",
"given_name": "Doe",
"gender": "male"
}
}
Copy mutation ($standardAttributes: UserStandardAttributes) {
updateUser(input: {userID: "<ENCODED USER ID>", standardAttributes: $standardAttributes}) {
user {
id
standardAttributes
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"updateUser": {
"user": {
"id": "VXNlcjowNGUyJJO4Mi04NmEzLTRjYjItOGQxNy14ZWU0Y2FlNzQ5Kse",
"standardAttributes": {
"email": "user@gmail.com",
"email_verified": true,
"family_name": "John",
"gender": "male",
"given_name": "Doe",
"updated_at": 1694947082
}
}
}
}
}
Example 2 (Custom Attributes)
The following example shows how to update custom attributes.
Note: You must have created the custom attributes you wish to update in Authgear Portal > User Profile > Custom Attributes .
Create a variable and extract the current custom attributes into it. Modify the values of the attributes you wish to update or add new attributes.
Note: Again, it is important to include the current values of the fields that you don't wish to update but still want to keep. The Admin API will delete any existing fields you omit in the variable.
The following block of code shows an example of the variable. You can set the variable in the variable tab of GraphiQL.
Copy {
"customAttributes": {
"town": "Lagos"
}
}
Copy mutation ($customAttributes: UserCustomAttributes) {
updateUser(input: {userID: "<ENCODED USER ID>", customAttributes: $customAttributes}) {
user {
id
customAttributes
}
}
}
Copy {
"data": {
"updateUser": {
"user": {
"customAttributes": {
"town": "John"
},
"id": "VABlcjo2Y2I3KBU9Zi0zNGYwLTRhNTPdYjQ3ZS0wYWWeMWYzNzQyA1A"
}
}
}
}
