Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for executing requests in an object schema-based application programming interface (API) based on parent-child relationships between data objects. Embodiments include receiving an API request from a client application. The API request identifies a navigable path through a graph projection of the API and includes a plurality of nodes in the graph. In response, one or more data objects to resolve, including an ultimate parent object to be returned as a response to the query, are identified based on an object schema associated with each node in the query. A dependency graph identifying an order in which the data objects are to be resolved is generated based on parent-child relationships between the identified one or more data objects. The data objects are resolved based on the dependency graph, and the ultimate parent object is returned to the client application.
