Once logged in, the user will be able to check out pets with a checkOut mutation. In this lesson, we’ll look at how to send a mutation based on current data.

To follow along with these queries, go to the Pet Library GraphQL Playground.

This only shows that a user who is authenticated into the system is authorized to use all resources. I was disappointed as I thought this video would demonstrate authorization but it doesn't.

Hi David, thanks for the feedback. Were you hoping to see authorization by field? What is missing that you'd find useful?

Hi Eve,

All of the pets are checked out, meaning I can't really run this example in the playground. I understand the concept so it's OK but would be nice to be able to try it :)

Hey Domenic! These pets are very popular, I guess! I just did some cleanup on the DB, so you should be good to check out a pet now. You might need to create a new account to do so :) Thanks!
