The Knowledge Graph [API](/api-reference/) supports GraphQL introspection, so you can programmatically discover types, fields, and relationships at runtime.

## Explore the schema

Get all available types, explore a specific type (like `Lesson`), and more:

<CodeGroup>
  ```text GraphQL theme={null}
  <!-- Get all available types -->
  query {
    __schema {
      types {
        name
        kind
        description
      }
    }
  }

  <!-- Explore a specific type (e.g., Lesson)
  query {
    __type(name: "Lesson") {
      name
      fields {
        name
        type {
          name
          kind
        }
        description
      }
    }
  }

  <!-- Get all available queries -->
  query {
    __schema {
      queryType {
        fields {
          name
          args {
            name
            type {
              name
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

  <!-- Get all relationship fields on a type -->
  query {
    __type(name: "Lesson") {
      fields {
        name
        type {
          name
          ofType {
            name
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
  ```

  ```shell cURL theme={null}
  # Get all available types
  curl -X POST \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -H 'x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY' \

    https://cumtxmqb68.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/staging/v1.0.0/graphql
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  from gql import Client, gql

  # Get all available types
  schema_query = gql("""
      query {
        __schema {
          types {
            name
            kind
            fields {
              name
              type {
                name
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
  """)

  result = client.execute(schema_query)
  for type_info in result["__schema"]["types"]:
      if not type_info["name"].startswith("__"):  # Skip introspection types
          print(f"Type: {type_info['name']} ({type_info['kind']})")
  ```

## Entities

The GraphQL API includes the following [entities](/knowledge-graph/understanding-knowledge-graph/core-concepts#entities):
