`__typename` not returned in select

[baptistemarchand]

Hi,

I have a query that looks like this :

user() {
    id
    firstname
    __typename
}

But when I do new PrismaSelect(info).value in my resolver, the result is { select: { id: true, firstname: true } }. Why is __typename not returned?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi

because the __typename is not in your prisma model and it's added by default from the graphql server

Thank you for your very quick answer! In my case I had added a __typename field to all models with the help of a prisma client extension (don't ask..), that's why I was expecting the field to show up. But anyway, I solved my issue. Sorry for the noise.

Not related to __typename, but in case it can help someone stumbling on this issue : if you have a typo in your schema.prisma, the field won't be returned in the select and you won't get any errors.
