Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hoppscotch/hoppscotch/issues/1902

Here is I am very happy to see the hoppscotch. It is very nice designed. But it is very sad that there is no option to add file in graphql. When we build graphql it need different file upload. Then if i not find a option for uploading or adding file it is very angryful. That's why I am requesting to the developers as soon as possible please add option to add file in graphql api.

@liyasthomas The feature I have request, is it already added or have to added? If the feature exist Please say how can I access the feature. If not then please add the feature. Thank you very much @liyasthomas for giving us such a beautiful api testing tool. I am a developer for 3 years. I tried almost all tool. But it is super nice and developer friendly.

@siamahnaf198 Well, no, the feature is not part of Hoppscotch as of right now.

Sadly, we are not prioritizing this feature as the official GraphQL spec do not specify an official solution to file transfers over GraphQL APIs.

We will still keep this issue open and will consider implementing this if there is any demand for such a feature.

But It need to transfer the file. I know graphql have not officially support to transfer file. But we use graphql-upload to transferring the file. Here you can consider it.
