GitHub user dosubot[bot] added a comment to the discussion: Custom User Info 
Fields and FAB User View Overrides No Longer Work in Superset v6 (React 
Migration)

<!-- Answer -->
Superset v6 does not provide a generic GraphQL API for querying arbitrary 
tables like ab_user. All current APIs are REST-based and resource-specific—each 
resource (users, dashboards, datasets, etc.) has its own endpoint, such as 
/api/v1/me for user info or /api/v1/dataset for datasets. There is no generic, 
flexible data query interface like GraphQL, and no public plans or SIPs to 
introduce a GraphQL endpoint for flexible data access in future releases as of 
early 2026 
[citation](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/superset/initialization/__init__.py)
 [citation](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/35259).

The closest alternative for flexible data access is the SQL Lab REST API, which 
lets you run SQL queries against your connected databases, but this does not 
expose internal tables like ab_user via API, and is not a GraphQL interface 
[citation](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/superset/sqllab/api.py).

If you need guidance on using the existing REST APIs or SQL Lab for supported 
use cases, let me know.
