Altair GraphQL Client on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Overview

Altair GraphQL Client is an open source GraphQL IDE for building, sending and inspecting GraphQL requests. It gives you a full featured query editor with syntax highlighting, autocompletion and inline documentation driven by live schema introspection, so you can explore an API's types, queries, mutations and subscriptions as you write. You can set custom headers and variables, run queries, mutations and real time subscriptions, view formatted responses, keep a searchable history of what you have run, and organise reusable requests into collections.

The self hosted build is a purely client side web app: it runs entirely in your own browser and connects directly to whatever GraphQL endpoint you point it at, so nothing you send passes through a third party service. It suits backend and frontend developers, API teams and testers who want a private, self hosted GraphQL client they fully control.

Common uses

• A private self hosted GraphQL IDE for building and testing queries
• Exploring a GraphQL schema with introspection, autocompletion and inline docs
• Running queries, mutations and subscriptions against your own APIs in the browser
