# 2. GraphQL Subscription

The sequence diagram for GraphQL Subscriptions illustrates how to benefit from the event-driven architecture implemented in the GeoPard core. Upon any changes to the linked entities, the

GeoPard API promptly emits an event capturing the impacted entities and the corresponding operation (`INSERT`, `MODIFY`, `REMOVE`). The scope of these subscriptions is expansive, covering all entities such as Farm, Field, SatelliteImage, SoilDataset, AsAppliedDataset, YieldDataset, TopographyMap, Notes, etc. 

The GraphQL Subscription ([Request 1 or R1](/geopard-tutorials/api-docs/geopard-api-requests-overview/1.-subscription-get-events.md)) operates on a WebSocket where all events are delivered in almost real-time, ensuring immediate communication of any changes. 

{% hint style="danger" %}
The receiver of the subscription events should function as a basic service, responsible for routing the received events to a subsequent service where processing logic is applied. It is crucial that this receiver doesn't perform any processing tasks itself.
{% endhint %}

Moreover, should there be any missed or lost events, users have the capability to retrieve them. This is achieved by executing a GraphQL query tailored for a specific date range and entities (User, Farm, Field), effectively enabling a complete recovery of past events ([Request 2 or R2](/geopard-tutorials/api-docs/geopard-api-requests-overview/82.-query-restore-subscription-events.md)). This level of functionality ensures no information is lost, maintaining the integrity and consistency of user data.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.geopard.tech/geopard-tutorials/api-docs/diagrams-with-basic-flows/2.-graphql-subscription.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
