Graphs on Hypermode is currently in developer preview. New features are shipping weekly.
When working with Dgraph, defining a schema is optional! Start schema-less and layer on a DQL or GraphQL-based modeling approach when needed.

​
Schema-less default

Graphs running in Hypermode use Dgraph’s flexible schema mode. This mode allows you to run a mutation without declaring the predicate in your schema. When a mutation introduces a new predicate, Dgraph automatically adds it to the schema. This can be useful when you’re in the early stages of a project and the schema is evolving frequently and for allowing AI agents to augment your knowledge graph.

​
Deploy a DQL schema

To deploy a DQL schema, place the schema in a file (schema.dql in this case) and make a POST request to the /dgraph/alter endpoint for your host. 
curl -X POST https://<my-database>.hypermode.host/dgraph/alter \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer $BEARER_TOKEN" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json"  \
    --data-binary "@schema.dql"

​
Deploy a GraphQL schema

To deploy a GraphQL schema, place the schema in a file (schema.graphql in this case) and make a POST request to the /dgraph/admin/schema endpoint for your host. 
curl -X POST https://<my-database>.hypermode.host/dgraph/admin/schema \
    --header "Authorization: Bearer $BEARER_TOKEN" \
    --header "Content-Type: application/json"  \
    --data-binary "@schema.graphql"
