### About queries

Every GraphQL schema has a root type for both queries and mutations. The [query type](https://graphql.github.io/graphql-spec/June2018/#sec-Type-System) defines GraphQL operations that retrieve data from the server.

For more information, see "[About queries](/v4/guides/forming-calls#about-queries)."
