Last updated: Oct 14, 2021
Hi all, I am building a main navigation and wanted to have the option to have different styled links. I have updated the schema with a type of "string" , named "style" . When I inspect the json in the admin, I can see that field exist, but when looking at the data on the front end, it does not show up? I am using GatsbyJS for the frontend

Hey Kyle, I know you mentioned deploying graphql, but does that mean you redeployed after you made the changes to your schema?

first , I had made the changes to my local, verified in the Studio the schema was update, but was not updated on the front end. then deployed graphql ,which them prompted me with the scheme changes and was successful

it weird, cause I have made some small changes to this CTA schema and it did update in the past, just the "style" one is not coming though?

Got it. And what does your query look like on your frontend?

back, annnnd I didn't realize the Nav items query was broken out into a fragment, added "style" and all is good, Thanks!
