Cant find whats causing graphql.AssertException: Object required to be not null - graphql

Question

I am currently learning Spring Boot and GraphQL. For graphql I am using the graphql spqr library and am encountering a graphql error. I am able to use localhost:8080/gui to make queries and mutations with my graphql api but when I use Postman or make a call from my frontend I get the error message below. It seems the endpoint is still /graphql in the gui, but when I use the same endpoint with Postman or axios I get the error.

Here is my Service class:

my security config:

I don't know what is causing this, any help would be much appreciated.
Solution:
Changed spqr verion from 0.10.0 to 0.9.9
<dependency>
<groupId>io.leangen.graphql</groupId>
<artifactId>spqr</artifactId>
<version>0.9.9</version>
</dependency>

Answer 1

You should make the request on the same endpoint (/gui). It behaves differently on different clients. If you are querying from a headless client, it will return a json object. On the other hand, if you're using browser, it will return it's query client as the response.
