In the LogScale user interface, fields in a repository can be highlighted with a star next to them. At some point, though, you may want to remove a star from a field. To do this, you can use the removeStarFromField() GraphQL mutation.

For an example of how to get a list of starred fields to see if there are others you might want to remove, click on the Show Query link below. To add a star to a field, use the addStarToField() mutation.

Syntax

graphql
removeStarFromField(
      input: RemoveStarToFieldInput!
   ): RemoveStarToFieldMutation!

For the input, you have to give the name of the repository or view, and the name of the field you want to star. See the Given Datatype section for details.

For the results, you can get a list of fields that have been starred. See the Returned Datatype section farther down this page.
