When I try to go to the GraphQL API Explorer, it just says missing query parameter. I have made the repository publicly available - according to the documentation when I go to [https://your-repository.prismic.io/graphql](https://your-repository.prismic.io/graphql), it seems like my API Explorer should open up (this repository just got created 2 days ago). ---

You are going to \.prismic.io/graphql, right? ---

Hi @divya, Welcome to the community! You should be able to visit you GraphQL browser as described. I haven’t seen this error before. Can you send me private message with your repository name so I can check this? Thanks. ---

Hi Phil - I’m not able to send a private message to you - not seeing an option to start a message thread. Would you be able to send me a message first so I can respond? ---

**Solution:** Trying to access the GraphQL API browser with through the CDN endpoint. The browser URL should be: [https://your-repository.prismic.io/graphql](https://your-repository.prismic.io/graphql) and not: [https://your-repository.cdn.prismic.io/graphql](https://your-repository.cdn.prismic.io/graphql) Use the CDN endpoint in your final project. ---

I’m having the same issue and I’m using the correct URL (Not the CDN URL) ---

Hi Ivo, Sounds like GraphQL might not be activated on your repo. Can you send the Activations Team a private message with your repository name we can check this for you? For anyone in the future with a similar issue, requesting GraphQL activation is outline in this thread: > [@Feature Activations (GraphQL, Integration Fields etc.)](https://community.prismic.io/t/feature-activations-graphql-integration-fields-etc/847): > > This thread details how to request activation of the following Prismic features: Integration Fields Environments (Platinum Plan) You can also ask for these 'action' requests: Main locale changes Deleting user accounts Media removal requests Features that are activated by default (Need activated on legacy repos): GraphQL (Visit [https://your-repo-name.prismic.io/graphql](https://your-repo-name.prismic.io/graphql) to see your GraphQL browser) New toolbar/edit button (If the preview script in your repo has new=true, you are up to date… Thanks. ---
