Graphql Automate

Target Audience

• Developers: Those who are building applications that require real-time data from GraphQL APIs.
• Data Analysts: Professionals seeking to automate data retrieval tasks from external APIs.
• Product Managers: Individuals who want to integrate GraphQL data into their products without extensive coding.
• Automation Enthusiasts: Users interested in streamlining workflows through automation tools like n8n.

Problem Solved

• Automated Data Retrieval: This workflow automates the process of fetching country data based on a country code through GraphQL, eliminating the need for manual API calls.
• Efficiency: Reduces the time and effort required to gather information about countries, such as their name, phone code, and emoji representation.
• Integration: Seamlessly integrates with webhooks, allowing for real-time data processing and response generation.

Workflow Steps

1. Webhook Trigger: The workflow is initiated by a webhook that receives a request containing a country code.
2. GraphQL Query: Using the received country code, a GraphQL query is executed against the endpoint https://countries.trevorblades.com/, retrieving data about the specified country.
3. Data Processing: A function node processes the response from the GraphQL query, extracting relevant information about the country (name, phone code, and emoji).
4. Data Formatting: A set node formats the retrieved data into a user-friendly message, summarizing the country code, name, emoji, and phone code.
5. Response: The formatted message can then be returned or sent to another service as needed.
