Getting started after deploying Hasura GraphQL

Hasura runs smoothly and can support thousands of users for your app on a 1GB RAM/1xCPU Droplet.
Once the Hasura GraphQL Engine one-click Droplet is ready, you can visit the Droplet IP to open the Hasura console. It may take a minute or so to start. On this UI, you can create tables & explore GraphQL APIs.
Follow these steps to run your first GraphQL query:
  1. Open console: Visit the Droplet IP in a browser to open Hasura console.
  2. Create a table: Navigate to the Data tab on the console and:
    1. Create a table called profile
    2. Create a column called id with type (Integer auto-increment)
    3. Create a column called name with type (Text)
    4. Choose id as the primary key and click the Create button
  3. Insert sample data: After creating the table, go to the Insert Row tab and insert some sample rows:
    • Thor
    • Iron Man
    • Hulk
    • Captain America
    • Black Widow
  4. Try out GraphQL: Switch to the GraphiQL tab on top and execute the following GraphQL query:

API Creation

In addition to creating a Droplet from the Hasura GraphQL 1-Click App via the control panel, you can also use the DigitalOcean API.

As an example, to create a 4GB Hasura GraphQL Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following curl command. You’ll need to either save your API access token to an environment variable or substitute it into the command below.


  curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
       -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \
      '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image":"hasura-18-04"}' \
      "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets"
