Router YAML Configuration Reference


This reference covers the YAML configuration file properties for configuring an Apollo Router.

YAML configuration properties

The router can be configured by a YAML configuration file. This file enables you to declaratively configure various runtime properties of your router's behavior.

At startup, you set the config file for your router by providing its path with the --config option:

Bash
1./router --config router.yaml
tip
Enable your text editor to validate the format and content of your router YAML configuration file by configuring it with the router's configuration schema.

Example YAML with all properties

Expand the code block to view an example YAML config file containing all properties.

    When you specify a graph_ref, the router's landing page includes an option for users to redirect to Apollo Explorer. Users can check a box that will remember their preference and automatically redirect them to Explorer on subsequent visits.

    note
    The graph_ref value should match the format organization-name@variant-name, which is the same format used with the APOLLO_GRAPH_REF environment variable. Note that the router does not automatically use the value from the APOLLO_GRAPH_REF environment variable for this setting - you must explicitly set graph_ref in your YAML configuration even if you're already using the environment variable.

override_subgraph_url

YAML
override_subgraph_url
1override_subgraph_url: {}

By default, the router obtains the routing URL for each of your subgraphs from the composed supergraph schema you provide it. In most cases, no additional configuration is required. The URL can use HTTP and HTTPS for network access to subgraph, or have the following shape for Unix sockets usage: unix:///path/to/subgraph.sock

However, if you do need to override a particular subgraph's routing URL (for example, to handle changing network topography), you can do so with the override_subgraph_url option:

YAML
1override_subgraph_url:
2  organizations: http://localhost:8080
3  accounts: "${env.ACCOUNTS_SUBGRAPH_HOST_URL}"

In this example, the organizations subgraph URL is overridden to point to http://localhost:8080, and the accounts subgraph URL is overridden to point to a new URL using variable expansion. The URL specified in the supergraph schema is ignored.

Any subgraphs that are omitted from override_subgraph_url continue to use the routing URL specified in the supergraph schema.

If you need to override the subgraph URL at runtime on a per-request basis, you can use request customizations in the SubgraphService layer.

You can enhance your graph's security with GraphOS Router by maintaining a persisted query list (PQL), an operation safelist made by your first-party apps. As opposed to automatic persisted queries (APQ) where operations are automatically cached, operations must be preregistered to the PQL. Once configured, the router checks incoming requests against the PQL.

When using Redis as the cache backend, the router emits additional Redis-specific metrics to help monitor cache performance:

  • Connection metrics: Track Redis connection establishment and health

  • Command metrics: Monitor Redis command execution, queue length, and redelivery counts

  • Performance metrics: Measure average latency, network latency, and request/response sizes

  • Operational metrics: Help identify connection issues, network problems, or performance bottlenecks

These metrics use the kind attribute to distinguish between different Redis cache uses (e.g., entity). For the complete list of Redis metrics and their descriptions, see the Redis Cache metrics documentation.

note
For new projects, Apollo recommends using Response Caching instead.

Apollo Sandbox is a GraphQL development environment. It runs a graph via introspection queries on the router's supergrpah schema, and it provides an IDE for making queries to the graph.

Running Sandbox in router requires configuring sandbox.enabled, supergraph.instrospection, and homepage.enabled:

server

YAML

1server:

Header Read Timeout

The header read timeout is the amount of time the Router will wait to receive the complete request headers from a client before timing out. It applies both when the connection is fully idle and when a request has been started but sending the headers has not been completed.

By default, the header read timeout is set to 10 seconds. A longer timeout can be configured using the server.http.header_read_timeout configuration option.

TLS handshake timeout

The TLS handshake timeout determines how long the router waits to complete a TLS handshake with a client.

The default timeout is ten seconds. You can configure the server.http.tls_handshake_timeout option to change this duration.

Supergraph listen address

As the gateway and single endpoint to your supergraph, an Apollo Router has a socket address and port that it listens for client requests. This listen address is configurable in YAML as supergraph.listen.

By default, the router starts an HTTP server that listens on 127.0.0.1:4000. You can specify a different address by setting supergraph.listen for IPv4, IPv6, or Unix sockets.

IPv4
YAML
router.yaml
1supergraph:
2  # The socket address and port to listen on (default: 127.0.0.1:400)
3  listen: 127.0.0.1:4000
IPv6
YAML
router.yaml
1supergraph:
2  # The socket address and port to listen on. (default: [::1]:4000)
3  # Note that this must be quoted to avoid interpretation as an array in YAML.
4  listen: "[::1]:4000"
Unix socket
YAML
router_unix.yaml
1supergraph:
2  # Absolute path to a Unix socket
3  listen: /tmp/router.sock
note
Listening on a Unix socket is not supported on Windows.

Supergraph endpoint path

The path of the HTTP endpoint of the supergraph that the router runs is configured by supergraph.path.

By default, the router starts an HTTP server that exposes a POST/GET endpoint at path /.

YAML
router.yaml
1supergraph:
2  # The path for GraphQL execution
3  # (Defaults to /)
4  path: /graphql

The path must start with /.

A path can contain parameters and wildcards:

  • /{parameter} matches a single segment. For example:

    • /abc/{my_param}/def matches /abc/1/def and /abc/whatever/def, but it doesn't match /abc/1/2/def or /abc/def

  • /{*parameter} matches all segments in the rest of a path. For example:

    • /abc/{*wildcard} matches /abc/1/def and /abc/w/h/a/t/e/v/e/r, but it doesn't match /abc/ or /not_abc_at_all

note
  • Both parameters and wildcards require a name, even though you can’t use those names anywhere.
  • The router doesn't support wildcards in the middle of a path (e.g., /{*wild}/graphql). Instead, use a path parameter (e.g., /{parameter}/graphql).

Introspection

In GraphQL, introspection queries are used during development to learn about a GraphQL API's schema. The router can resolve introspection queries, based on the configuration of supergraph.introspection.

By default, the router doesn't resolve introspection queries.

To enable introspection queries during development, set the supergraph.introspection flag:

YAML
router.yaml
1# Do not enable introspection in production!
2supergraph:
3  introspection: true
Introspection recursion limit

The schema-introspection schema is recursive: a client can query the fields of the types of some other fields, and so on arbitrarily deep. This can produce responses that grow much faster than the size of the request.

To prevent this, the router is configured by default to not execute introspection queries that nest list fields that are too deep, instead returning an error. The criteria matches MaxIntrospectionDepthRule in graphql-js, and it may change in future versions.

In case the router rejects legitimate queries, you can disable the limit by setting the limits.introspection_max_depth flag:

YAML
router.yaml
1# Do not enable introspection in production!
2supergraph:
3  introspection: true
4limits:
5  introspection_max_depth: false

Early cancel

Up until Apollo Router Core v1.43.1, when the client closed the connection without waiting for the response, the entire request was cancelled and did not go through the entire pipeline. Since this causes issues with request monitoring, the router introduced a new behavior in 1.43.1. Now, the entire pipeline is executed if the request is detected as cancelled, but subgraph requests are not actually done. The response will be reported with the 499 status code, but not actually sent to the client.

To go back to the previous behavior of immediately cancelling the request, the following configuration can be used for supergraph.early_cancel:

YAML
1supergraph:
2  early_cancel: true

Additionally, since v1.43.1, the router can show a log when it detects that the client canceled the request. This log can be activated with:

YAML
router.yaml
1supergraph:
2  experimental_log_on_broken_pipe: true

Connection shutdown timeout

When the Router schema or configuration updates all connections must be closed for resources to be freed. To ensure that long-lived connections do not hang on to resources, a maximum graceful shutdown timeout can be configured with supergraph.connection_shutdown_timeout:

YAML
router.yaml
1supergraph:
2  connection_shutdown_timeout: 60s

The default value is 60 seconds.

Note that if early_cancel is false (default), then requests in progress will still hold onto pipeline resources. In that case, traffic shaping request timeouts should be used to prevent long-running requests:

YAML
router.yaml
1traffic_shaping:
2  router:
3    timeout: 60s

Automatic fragment generation

By default, the router compresses subgraph requests by generating fragment definitions based on the shape of the subgraph operation. In many cases this significantly reduces the size of the query sent to subgraphs.

Opt out of this behavior by specifying supergraph.generate_query_fragments:

YAML
1supergraph:
2  generate_query_fragments: false

Variable validation modes

By default, the router validates input variables strictly. It validates each input object value against its type definition, and any unknown fields result in a request error.

YAML
1supergraph:
2  strict_variable_validation: enforce

If your implementation requires unknown fields on a defined type, you can opt out of stricter validation by specifying strict_variable_validation: measure. In this case, the router will not error when encountering unknown fields, but will log the field for reference.

Enhanced operation signature normalization

Requires ≥ Router v1.49.0
note
The router supports enhanced operation signature normalization in the following versions:

Apollo's legacy operation signature algorithm removes information about certain fields, such as input objects and aliases. This removal means some operations may have the same normalized signature though they are distinct operations.

Enhanced normalization incorporates input types and aliases in signature generation. It also includes other improvements that make it more likely that two operations that only vary slightly have the same signature.

Configure enhanced operation signature normalization in router.yaml with the telemetry.apollo.signature_normalization_algorithm option:

YAML
router.yaml
1telemetry:
2  apollo:
3    signature_normalization_algorithm: enhanced # Default is legacy

Once you enable this configuration, operations with enhanced signatures might appear with different operation IDs than they did previously in GraphOS Studio.

Input types

Enhanced signatures include input object type shapes, while still redacting any actual values. Legacy signatures replace input object type with {}.

Given the following example operation:

GraphQL
query InlineInputTypeQuery {
  inputTypeQuery(
    input: {
      inputString: "foo"
      inputInt: 42
      inputBoolean: null
      nestedType: { someFloat: 4.2 }
      enumInput: SOME_VALUE_1
      nestedTypeList: [{ someFloat: 4.2, someNullableFloat: null }]
      listInput: [1, 2, 3]
    }
  ) {
    enumResponse
  }
}

The legacy normalization algorithm generates the following signature:

GraphQL
query InlineInputTypeQuery {
  inputTypeQuery(input: {}) {
    enumResponse
  }
}

The enhanced normalization algorithm generates the following signature:

GraphQL
query InlineInputTypeQuery {
  inputTypeQuery(
    input: {
      inputString: ""
      inputInt: 0
      inputBoolean: null
      nestedType: { someFloat: 0 }
      enumInput: SOME_VALUE_1
      nestedTypeList: [{ someFloat: 0, someNullableFloat: null }]
      listInput: []
    }
  ) {
    enumResponse
  }
}
Aliases

Enhanced signatures include any field aliases used in an operation. Legacy signatures remove aliases completely, meaning the signature may be invalid if the same field was used with multiple aliases.

Given the following example operation:

GraphQL
query AliasedQuery {
  noInputQuery {
    interfaceAlias1: interfaceResponse {
      sharedField
    }
    interfaceAlias2: interfaceResponse {
      ... on InterfaceImplementation1 {
        implementation1Field
      }
      ... on InterfaceImplementation2 {
        implementation2Field
      }
    }
    inputFieldAlias1: objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: true) {
      stringField
    }
    inputFieldAlias2: objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: false) {
      intField
    }
  }
}

The legacy normalization algorithm generates the following signature:

GraphQL
query AliasedQuery {
  noInputQuery {
    interfaceResponse {
      sharedField
    }
    interfaceResponse {
      ... on InterfaceImplementation1 {
        implementation1Field
      }
      ... on InterfaceImplementation2 {
        implementation2Field
      }
    }
    objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: true) {
      stringField
    }
    objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: false) {
      intField
    }
  }
}

The enhanced normalization algorithm generates the following signature:

GraphQL
query AliasedQuery {
  noInputQuery {
    interfaceAlias1: interfaceResponse {
      sharedField
    }
    interfaceAlias2: interfaceResponse {
      ... on InterfaceImplementation1 {
        implementation1Field
      }
      ... on InterfaceImplementation2 {
        implementation2Field
      }
    }
    inputFieldAlias1: objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: true) {
      stringField
    }
    inputFieldAlias2: objectTypeWithInputField(boolInput: false) {
      intField
    }
  }
}

Extended reference reporting

Requires ≥ Router v1.50.0
note
The router supports extended reference reporting in the following versions:

You can configure the router to report enum and input object references for enhanced insights and operation checks. Apollo's legacy reference reporting doesn't include data about enum values and input object fields, meaning you can't view enum and input object field usage in GraphOS Studio. Legacy reporting can also cause inaccurate operation checks.

Configure extended reference reporting in router.yaml with the telemetry.apollo.metrics_reference_mode option like so:

YAML
router.yaml
1telemetry:
2  apollo:
3    metrics_reference_mode: extended # Default is legacy

Extended error reporting

Requires ≥ Router v2.1.2
PREVIEW
This feature is in preview. Your questions and feedback are highly valueddon't hesitate to get in touch with your Apollo contact.
note
The router supports extended error reporting in the following versions:

You can configure the router to report extended error information for improved diagnostics. Apollo's legacy error reporting doesn't include the service or error code, meaning you can't easily attribute errors to their root cause in GraphOS Studio.

Configure extended reference reporting in router.yaml with the telemetry.apollo.errors.preview_extended_error_metrics option like so:

YAML
router.yaml
1telemetry:
2  apollo:
3    errors:
4      preview_extended_error_metrics: enabled # Default is disabled

Configuration effect timing

Once you configure extended reference reporting, you can view enum value and input field usage alongside object field usage in GraphOS Studio for all subsequent operations.

Configuring extended reference reporting automatically turns on enhanced operation checks, though you won't see an immediate change in your operations check behavior.

This delay is because operation checks rely on historical operation data. To ensure sufficient data to distinguish between genuinely unused values and those simply not reported in legacy data, enhanced checks require some operations with extended reference reporting turned on.

Enhanced operation checks

Thanks to extended reference reporting, operation checks can more accurately flag issues for changes to enum values and input object fields. See the comparison table below for differences between standard operation checks based on legacy reference reporting and enhanced checks based on extended reference reporting.

Standard Check Behavior
(Legacy reference reporting)
Enhanced Check Behavior
(Extended reference reporting)
Enum value removal
Removing any enum values is considered a breaking change if any operations use the enum. Removing enum values is only a breaking change if historical operations use the specific enum value(s) that were removed.
Default argument changes for input object fields
Changing or removing a default argument is generally considered a breaking change, but changing or removing default values for input object fields isn't.Changing or removing default values for input object fields is considered a breaking change.You can configure checks to ignore default values changes.
Nullable input object field removal
Removing a nullable input object field is always considered a breaking change. Removing a nullable input object field is only considered a breaking change if the nullable field is present in historical operations. If the nullable field is always omitted in historical operations, its removal isn't considered a breaking change.
Changing nullable input object fields to non-nullable
Changing a nullable input object field to non-nullable is considered a breaking change. Changing a nullable input object field to non-nullable is only considered a breaking change if the field had a null value in historical operations. If the field was always a non-null value in historical operations, changing it to non-nullable isn't considered a breaking change.
note
You won't see an immediate change in checks behavior when you first turn on extended reference reporting. Learn more.

YAML configuration utilities

Variable expansion

You can reference variables directly in your YAML config file. This is useful for referencing secrets without including them in the file.

Currently, the router supports expansion of environment variables and file paths. Corresponding variables are prefixed with env. and file., respectively.

The router uses Unix-style expansion. Here are some examples:

  • ${env.ENV_VAR_NAME} expands to the value of environment variable ENV_VAR_NAME.

  • ${env.ENV_VAR_NAME:-some_default} expands to the value of environment variable ENV_VAR_NAME, or falls back to the value some_default if the environment variable is not defined.

  • ${file.a.txt} expands to the contents of the file a.txt.

  • ${file.a.txt:-some_default} expands to the contents of the file a.txt, or falls back to the value some_default if the file does not exist.

Variable expansions are valid only for YAML values, not keys.

Reusing configurations with YAML aliases

You can reuse parts of your configuration file in multiple places using standard YAML aliasing syntax:

YAML
router.yaml
1headers:
2  subgraphs:
3    products:
4      request:
5        - insert: &insert_custom_header
6            name: "custom-header"
7            value: "something"
8    reviews:
9      request:
10        - insert: *insert_custom_header

Here, the name and value entries under &insert_custom_header are reused under *insert_custom_header.

Escaping special characters

To include a literal $ character, double it as $$. The router converts each $$ to a single $:

  • Config value: prefix$$suffix

  • Result: prefix$suffix
