Text Area Field

June 30, 2021 ยท View on GitHub

Text Area fields are added to the WPGraphQL Schema as a field with the Type String.

Text Area fields can be queried and a String will be returned.

Here, we have a Text Area field named text_area on the Post Edit screen within the "ACF Docs" Field Group.

Text Area field in the Edit Post screen

This field can be Queried in GraphQL like so:

{
  post( id: "acf-example-test" idType: URI ) {
    acfDocs {
      textArea
    }
  }
}

and the results of the query would be:

{
  "data": {
    "post": {
       "acfDocs": {
         "textArea": "Text value"
       }
    }
  }
}
