API Reference: Schema reporting plugin
Using the plugin
This API reference documents the ApolloServerPluginSchemaReporting
plugin.
This plugin enables your GraphQL server to register its latest schema with the Apollo schema registry every time it starts up. Full details on schema reporting can be found in the Apollo Studio docs.
Schema reporting does not currently support graphs that use Apollo Federation. This plugin will not work if your graph is a federated implementing service or a composed federated graph running in a gateway. If you have a federated graph, you will need to register schema via the CLI; see Setting up managed federation.
In order to use this plugin, you must configure your server with a graph API key, either with the APOLLO_KEY
environment variable or by passing it directly to your ApolloServer
with new ApolloServer({apollo: {key: KEY}})
. (This is the same way you configure your ApolloServer
to enable usage reporting.)
If you just want to turn on schema reporting with its default configuration, you can set the APOLLO_SCHEMA_REPORTING
environment variable to true
. If you want to configure schema reporting (or prefer your setup to be via code rather than environment variables), import ApolloServerPluginSchemaReporting
from the apollo-server-core
package and pass it to your ApolloServer
in the plugins
array:
import { ApolloServer } from "apollo-server";
import { ApolloServerPluginSchemaReporting } from "apollo-server-core";
const server = new ApolloServer({
typeDefs,
resolvers,
plugins: [
ApolloServerPluginSchemaReporting(),
],
});
This plugin was introduced in Apollo Server 2.18. In previous versions, schema reporting was configured using the engine
option to the ApolloServer
constructor. That option continues to work; see the migration guide for details.

The schema reporter waits before starting reporting. By default, the report waits some random amount of time between 0 and 10 seconds. A longer interval leads to more staggered starts which means it is less likely multiple servers will get asked to upload the same schema. If this server runs in lambda or in other constrained environments it would be useful to decrease the schema reporting max wait time to be less than default. This number will be the max for the range in ms that the schema reporter will wait before starting to report. |

Override the reported schema that is reported to the Apollo registry. This schema does not go through any normalizations and the string is directly sent to the Apollo registry. This can be useful for comments or other ordering and whitespace changes that get stripped when generating a If you pass this option to this plugin, you should explicitly configure
