How to play with Graphql playground for Mutation’s?

Okay, well I was also looking for solution to this and here it is:

Mutation example of adding employee using Graphql Playground, most important step after you have added the code below to playground tab window:

# Write your query or mutation here
mutation AddEmployee(
  $name: String!,
  $phoneNumber: String!,
  $email: String! ,
  $designation: String,
  $image: String) {
    addEmployee(employee: 
      { name: $name, phoneNumber:$phoneNumber, email: $email, designation: $designation, image:$image },
    ) 
      {
        emp_id
        name
      }
    
}

You need to add your JSON payload to QUERY VARIABLES tab window (which is closed by default on below main playground window, without this input payload you will not see results, but error. (keep an eye on here while you make mutation test in graphql playground)
