Question 2

GraphJin vs Hasura for GraphQL APIs?

Accepted Answer

GraphJin is tailored for AI-assisted queries with auto-schema discovery and MCP integration, while Hasura offers a more traditional GraphQL approach with extensive real-time capabilities and a larger ecosystem for non-AI applications.

Question 3

Does GraphJin support MongoDB aggregations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, GraphJin supports MongoDB for queries and mutations, including aggregations, but check the compatibility table for specific features like full-text search, as support may vary.

Question 4

Is GraphJin secure for production use?

Accepted Answer

GraphJin includes production-ready security features like query allow-lists, role-based access control, and JWT authentication, ensuring only approved queries run and data access is restricted based on roles.

Question 5

How to handle complex database joins in GraphJin?

Accepted Answer

GraphJin automatically handles joins via foreign key relationships; for advanced scenarios, you can define saved queries or use JS workflows to chain multiple operations, leveraging the MCP tools.

Question 6

Can I use GraphJin without an AI assistant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, GraphJin can function as a standalone GraphQL API service, but its core value lies in AI integration, and features like MCP tools may be unused overhead in non-AI contexts.
