ok, thanks for confirming that, I was unclear because the schema also generates a `Query` called

```auto
getNamed(
name: String!
)

```

and the `get` queries are supposed to be about finding a single object  
[https://dgraph.io/docs/graphql/queries/search-filtering/#get-a-single-object](https://dgraph.io/docs/graphql/queries/search-filtering/#get-a-single-object)

I don’t have to use that query, just was surprised that an interface does generate queries
