It is not recommended to give direct access to Dgraph to the applications you have (unless you have ACL or some testing concepts). It is recommended that you have a separate API that is between your back-end and final client. Or use Dgraph’s native GraphQL API (or use Slash Dgraph) with Auth. In the latter case, you can use any GraphQL client for RN.

But, Sunny, I have forgotten to mention a “way” to do this. I know that doing things is way better to learn something than just reading docs, posts, or videos.

If you are playing around with Dgraph, Dgraph has an HTTP endpoint https://dgraph.io/docs/dql/clients/ so you can use any lib like “fetch”. There are just 2 main endpoints. “Mutate” and “query”. And you can also send queries in JSON format.

If you have questions about this API, just ask.

Cheers.
