GraphQL timeout and query complexity limits
Deep queries and large lists exceed server timeouts or complexity scores. APIs return partial errors or 504. Profile field cost and add pagination.
Common causes
- Unbounded list fields.
- N+1 resolver patterns.
- No query depth limit.
How to fix
- Validate query shape in GraphQL Query Validator.
- Reduce selections and add limits.
- Cache hot fields server-side.
