How to group by Graphql query result

I have a following GraphQL query

query {
  Result: querydata {
    name
    code
    description
  }
}

that returns me the following data

{
  "data": {
    "Result": [
      {
        "name": "Class1",
        "code": "ST1",
        "description": "Value"
      },
      {
        "name": "Class1",
        "code": "ST2",
        "description": "Value"
      },
      {
        "name": "Class2",
        "code": "FS1",
        "description": "Value"
      },
      {
        "name": "Class2",
        "code": "FS2",
        "description": "Value"
      }
    ]
  }
}

In this data, I have a name field that either be "Class1" or "Class2". I wan't to group this data in a way that I can have Class1 and Class2 data separated. Is there any way of doing this. I could have achieved this by running 2 separate queries by providing a name filter but lets say I don't have that option.

I want to transform the result as follow

{
  "data": {
    "Result": [
      "Class1": [
          {
            "code": "ST1",
            "description": "Value"
          },
          {
            "code": "ST2",
            "description": "Value"
          }
      ]

      "Class2": [
          {
            "code": "FS1",
            "description": "Value"
          },
          {
            "code": "FS2",
            "description": "Value"
          }
      ]
    ]
  }
}

How do I get data from a GraphQL query?

You can fetch data very simply with the help of the package graphql-request . GraphQL Request is a library that doesn't require you to set up a client or a Provider component. It is essentially a function that just accepts an endpoint and a query.

What is __ Typename in GraphQL?

The __typename field returns the object type's name as a String (e.g., Book or Author ). GraphQL clients use an object's __typename for many purposes, such as to determine which type was returned by a field that can return multiple types (i.e., a union or interface).

What does GraphQL query return?

After being validated, a GraphQL query is executed by a GraphQL server which returns a result that mirrors the shape of the requested query, typically as JSON. In order to describe what happens when a query is executed, let's use an example to walk through.

What you are describing is something that should either happen on the client side or allow your query type to receive a name option that you use to return the propper class, then the query below would work for what you are needing assuming it was able to lookup the name of the querydata

query {
  Class1: querydata(name: "Class1") {
    code
    description
  }
  Class2: querydata(name: "Class2") {
    code
    description
  }
}
