Hi, is there a way to create multiple nodes in one mutation?

@leopradel you can create nodes across relations using nested mutations - what's your use case?

I want to insert 300 objects of the same type in one mutation just to avoid 300 call to the api

there's currently no way to do it - are you doing an initial data import?

When a user signup I want to import some data from a service

hmm ok - so this should be related to the user, right?

yep

you can actually use nested mutations then

okay thank you!

cheers! do note that using

items

with

updateUser

is always overwriting current connections

Cool good to know!

so, you have multiple pairs of nodes that should be connected pairwise?

more U1 to P1 and P2

ah

With that method it will remove the old connections right?

yes

So if I want to add some new items and create relations with existing elements the best way to do that is to: - create a nested mutation that insert new items

updateUser(id: "some-id" items: [{name: "first item", age: 3}, {name: "hi", age 12}])

- get the ids returned for that mutation - And concat the ids of the new ones with the ones I already have

updateUser(id: "some-id" postsIds: ["p1-id", "p2-id', 'concat-id'])

this depends, how many items do you create in step 1, and how many in step 3?

It depends but I would say max 1000 on first insert

Yes I would say the way you lined it up is the best way - even though I honestly can't say if it's possible to connect to 2000 items in step 3 🙂 need to try it out

Okay thank you very much for your time simple smile !
