dotnet graphql not found

Question

I am trying to update a graphql schema, but when I run dotnet graphql update in the command line it says that graphql is not recognised. I am trying to run a command that doesn't exist.

This used to work, but has since stopped. I haven't touched it in months because there hasn't been a need, but we have recently started having problems with our graphql client and searching suggested that the schema has changed. I need to be able to update the graphql schema to get past my problem

Any help would be appreciated

Hi @Jai Holloway ,

Does the "dotnet-tools.json" file exist in the C:\Users\username\.config folder?

If it doesn’t exist, please try to run dotnet new tool-manifest command in the CMD to create it.

If it exists, please right-click it => select Open With => open it with Notepad. Make sure that the strawberryshake.tools has been installed. For example:

If it isn’t listed in the dotnet-tools.json file by some reasons, try to run dotnet tool install StrawberryShake.Tools command to reinstall it.

After you have confirmed that it has been installed. Try to open CMD as administrator, and run command dotnet graphql update -h see if the command can be run correctly, like

Best regards,
