The Teamwork Graph API is available through Forge's Preview release phase.

Preview features are available to all users and receive the same level of support as generally available features. Schemas, fields, and behavior may still change before general availability (GA), and breaking changes are subject to a minimum 1-month deprecation notice, announced in the Teamwork Graph changelog.

To review the current limitations, see Limitations and considerations.

Available fields and properties

The Teamwork Graph API has the following fields and properties that you can use in your queries:

Cypher query properties are metadata properties used for filtering and traversing relationships between different object types in Teamwork Graph. Use Cypher query properties when you need to filter or navigate relationships between this object and other objects in your queries.
