## Response `200`

OK

- CustomResolver
  - `on_type` string, required — The name of the resolver's parent type. This can be `"Query"`, `"Mutation"`, or the name of a generated type if this is a computed property.
  - `field_name` string, required — The name of the custom resolver field that appears in the GraphQL schema.
  - `input_type` union — The type of the custom resolver's `input` parameter. This can be a scalar, the name of an existing generated type, or a custom JSON schema object. If undefined, the resolver does not accept an input.
    - string
    - object
  - `input_type_format` 'scalar' | 'scalar-list' | 'generated' | 'generated-list' | 'custom' — The kind of input type the custom resolver uses. This value must agree with the value of `input_type`: - A scalar input type must use `"scalar"` or `"scalar-list"` - A generated input type must use `"generated"` or `"generated-list"` - A custom input type must use `"custom"` If undefined, the resolver does not accept an input.
  - `payload_type` union — The type of the value returned by the custom resolver. This can be a scalar, the name of an existing generated type, or a custom JSON schema object. If undefined, the resolver returns a `DefaultPayload` object: ```graphql type DefaultPayload { status: String! } ```
    - string
    - object
  - `payload_type_format` 'scalar' | 'scalar-list' | 'generated' | 'generated-list' | 'custom' — The kind of payload type the custom resolver uses. This value must agree with the value of `payload_type`: - A scalar payload type must use `"scalar"` or `"scalar-list"` - A generated payload type must use `"generated"` or `"generated-list"` - A custom payload type must use `"custom"` If undefined, the resolver returns a `DefaultPayload` object.
  - `_id` string, required — The custom resolver's unique ID.
  - `function_id` string, required — The resolver function's unique ID.
