Understanding IDs and Refs in GraphQL Entities

Edited 778 days ago

The Fluent platform generates unique IDs internally, which serve as the primary key for each new record. They are unique and enforced to avoid ambiguity. Users cannot set these via API. Whereas refs are typically from third-party integrations, they represent external system IDs and occasionally are generated internally with guaranteed uniqueness. It is the integrator's responsibility to ensure refs are unique in Fluent Commerce.

Edited 76 days ago

Fluent workflows and Mystique manifests are often large, complex JSON files that are difficult for both humans and AI assistants to work with. The Fluent CLI provides a set of commands to summarize, extract, and merge these files, enabling an efficient development workflow.
