Hi Sumedha, sorry for the delay and thanks for the reply.
> I was able to generate typescript types using the endpoint with GQL Codegen
I will check that again. Last time I tried, it generates a schema which has a lot of @deprecated directives. Is it expected?> The one thing I can think of is including the authorization header
Yes, that was a trap, but I think I solved: I got an access token running curl with API key, and put the token in codegen.yml like: (indent/space is broken here)schema:
- https://realm.mongodb.com/api/client/v2.0/app{my app id here}/graphql:
headers:
Authorization: Bearer {token here}This gave me a schema but with @deprecated directives.
> You should be able to do this on the 'SDKs' tab in the UI.
SDKs tab looks great! (I thought I once checked this tab, I maybe overlooked, sorry..)
One question; are these code snippets only accessible on this page? Could I get them through CLI like graphql-codegen?An error occurred while saving the comment Toshi

Hi Sumedha, thank you for response. I'm sorry I didn't notice your comment, and I even updated my post after you commented. So you might find some diffs between what you initially read and the current text above. I just didn't expect any response! Sorry and thanks.
So, I started a scratch web-app project. I used React(Next.js) and Apollo client for GraphQL requests. I read many doc pages, but basically followed this one:
https://docs.mongodb.com/realm/tutorial/web-graphql/I created Atlas cluster -> Put some data in collection -> Initialized Realm -> Clicked "Generate schema" button and got schemas by sampling -> Went to the GraphQL page and tried some queries-> Downloaded schema.graphql by clicking button there -> Setup graphql-codegen's yml file locally.
> Is the Web UI you're referring to here, the Atlas/Compass UI?
I referred to the web pages, whose domains are cloud.mongodb.com / realm.mongodb.com.As for your question about difference of #3 and #6:
In addition to a frontend app with React, I'm writing some serverless functions too. I used Next.js(Vercel) build-in functions feature here. On the server side, I wanted to try Realm node.js SDK instead of Apollo, because it looked simpler and attractive in how it defines and handles relationship.
So I read over Realm Node.js SDK docs, but I couldn't come up with good way to keep DRY to align schemas between frondend and function. I also tried realm-cli and got local json schema files (`rules/tracker.users.json` file etc). I thought the json schema files can be the source-of-truth. Is there any way to convert the json schema to realm object schema, or vice versa? Especially I'm lost in which to define relationships. I checked 3rd party tooling (for example quicktype.io), but I couldn't find a good way to go.
Also, I felt that these local json files are not expected to be edited repeatedly. For this need, I put up another idea (maybe I'm wrong):
https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/930808-mongodb-cli/suggestions/41158219-push-local-settings-pull-remote-settingsOne more note; I think graphql-codegen is really well developed, so GraphQL->TypeScript conversion is ok. I should say JSON->GraphQL->TypeScript schema generation is greatly automated already. One minor problem is currently realm's `schema.graphql` file is only downloadable from the "Download Schema Button" if I'm right. It would be great to download it programatically. I usually use the remote graphql endpoint for the schema path on the codegen.yml file. However with Realm GraphQL endpoint it didn't work correctly, so I use the manually downloaded file instead.
Sorry for the long comment. If I'm behaving not as you recommended/expected (maybe so), please point out. For further communication, I'll be happy to continue with emails.

Not only for functions, but also please consider local tooling for graphql.
AWS Amplify has a local development feature which is really useful. Just run a simple command `amplify mock api` then you get a locally running graphql endpoint. It really speeds up both development and testing.

This work has been started by the team. It’s a big change but expect delivery soon.

I'm waiting for this feature!
Without it, you need to set up a separate node.js server somewhere else by yourself and that reduces the value of realm's great built-in graphql backend.
I think one of the use-cases where the nature of mongoDB will shine is an app that requires realtime feature. Subscription should be must-have in the Atlas-Realm world.

FYI:
SearchKit, a great UI library for ElasticSearch, has released v3 a few days ago. Good news is that it decoupled with ElasticSearch and introduced GraphQL layer in-between, which might mean there would be possibility for Atlas Search to utilize it.
