Is there a path to follow where you can interface with Azures CosmosDB using GraphQL along with an Azure Functions interface if there needs to be a place where logic is executed.

          As far as I know CosmoDB at this time only supports these APIs:




          • Standard SQL

          • MongoDB

          • Cassandra

          • Azure Table

          • Gremlin


          If you want to use the GraphQL protocol to query it, you might need to create a wrapper, that translates the GraphQL queries to the appropriate interface.



          I would suggest to go for a MongoDB API and implement functions that accept the GraphQL queries and interact with the MongoDB. This should be easy, because MongoDBs queries are looking pretty the same [1].

          • This would be served well as a comment (pointing out that native GraphQL doesn't exist. As for suggesting a particular API: There's simply no way to suggest a particular API without knowing anything about the OP's data modeling needs. And a particular API doesn't limit the use of GraphQL.

            Just added the hint, that using MongoDB and a wrapper would be easy to implement. That wouldn't have worked in a comment...
