## About interfaces
|
|
|
|
[Interfaces](https://graphql.github.io/graphql-spec/June2018/#sec-Interfaces) serve as parent objects from which other objects can inherit.
|
|
|
|
For example, [`Lockable`](/graphql/reference/interfaces#lockable) is an interface because both [`Issue`](/graphql/reference/objects#issue) and [`PullRequest`](/graphql/reference/objects#pullrequest) objects can be locked. An interface has its own list of named fields that are shared by implementing objects.
