# Notebook Examples

### GraphQL Example Use Cases

Ready to [get started](/ax/graphql-reference/overview/getting-started-with-graphql)? Navigate through our case-specific Colabs to help get you started using our GraphQL API for your monitors.

Learn more about different mutations and their functions [here](/ax/graphql-reference/apis/monitors-api).

<Info>
  A **mutation** is an operation that allows you to modify server-side data. Learn more about mutations [here](/ax/graphql-reference/overview/how-to-use-graphql/mutations).

[**Patching Drift Monitors**](https://colab.research.google.com/github/Arize-ai/graphql-api-examples/blob/main/use-cases/Update_Drift_Monitors_Use_Case.ipynb)

This use case example helps you understand the `patch mutation` for drift monitors. Since Arize has 3 types of monitors (Drift, Performance, and Data Quality), we use a different `patch` mutation for each kind of monitor.

Learn how to edit existing threshold values using the `patchDriftMonitor` mutation to bulk edit your drift monitors.

[**Creating Performance Monitors**](https://colab.research.google.com/github/Arize-ai/graphql-api-examples/blob/main/use-cases/Create_Performance_Monitors_Use_Case.ipynb)

This use case example helps you understand the `create mutation` for performance monitors. This mutation allows you to update or create monitors in bulk. Since Arize utilizes 3 types of monitors (Drift, Performance, and Data Quality), we use a different `create` mutation for each kind of monitor.

Learn how to use the `createPerformanceMonitor` mutation to bulk create performance monitors with explicit thresholds.

[**Creating Data Quality Monitors**](https://colab.research.google.com/github/Arize-ai/graphql-api-examples/blob/main/use-cases/Create_Data_Quality_Monitors_Use_Case.ipynb)

This use case example helps you understand the `create mutation` for performance monitors. This mutation allows you to update or create monitors in bulk. Since Arize utilizes 3 types of monitors (Drift, Performance, and Data Quality), we use a different `create` mutation for each kind of monitor.

Learn how to use the `createDataQualityMonitor` mutation to bulk create performance monitors with explicit thresholds.
