Magento GraphQL API

Overview

Magento 2 (and Adobe Commerce) ships a comprehensive GraphQL API for storefront operations — product catalog, search, cart, checkout, customer authentication, and order history. The endpoint is /graphql and does not require an admin token for public catalog data. Cart and customer operations require a guest cart ID (UUID) or a Bearer token from customer login. PWA Studio (Venia) is built entirely on this API, making it the reference implementation for headless Magento.

When to Use This Skill

• When building a React, Vue, or Next.js headless storefront on Magento 2
• When creating a native mobile app that needs Magento product and checkout data
• When implementing PWA Studio extensions that fetch custom data via GraphQL resolvers
• When replacing REST API calls with more efficient GraphQL queries in existing headless projects
• When building a custom GraphQL resolver to expose third-party or custom module data
• When integrating a headless CMS with Magento's product catalog
