Hey all, wondering if anyone can provide a little guidance re: adding single headers to apollo graphql calls in Kotlin? Don't really want this to be a global header so trying to avoid the interceptor pattern.

interface TourService {
    @POST("/")
    suspend fun toursQuery(
        @Header("Authorization") auth: String,
        @Header("Content-Type") content: String = "application/json",
        @Body body: String): List<Tour>
}

object ApolloBuilder {
    private const val BASE_URL = "<https://somewhere.com>"
    private fun getApollo(): ApolloClient {
        return ApolloClient.builder()
            .serverUrl(BASE_URL)
            .build()
    }
}

I assumed that the @Header annotation would magik things in 😄

I don’t think this is a graphql-kotlin question, but isn’t the annotation RequestHeader?

Actually not quite sure what you’re doing 😅

[Miles Alden]

🤷 Ha ya I'm new to this framework and Kotlin even but the @Header annotation works for Retrofit.

But I'm trying to add a header to my graphql request while using Apollo.

[Saharath Kleips]

Perhaps #graphql? This channel is for graphql-kotlin so not sure how helpful it will be about using the Apollo client

[Miles Alden]

Sounds good, thanks. 🙂

Or #apollo-android if that is the client library you are using
