Sure, this is the full mutation, but we reproduced this with just the bnode
update.
mutation updateExpressionById(
$uri: ID!,
$primaryId:String!,
$versionTag:String!,
$catalogedOn: String!,
$createdOn: String!,
$name: String!,
$internalName: String!,
$state: ID!,
$contentModel: ID!,
$clientTag: String!,
$tagType: ID!) {
outcome: updateExpression (input:{
uri:$uri
internalName: $internalName
primaryId: $primaryId
versionTag: $versionTag
name:{
string:$name
lang:"en-US"
}
state: {
uri: $state
}
contentModel: {
uri: $contentModel
}
versionCode: {
code:$clientTag
tagType: {uri: $tagType}
}
catalogedOn: $catalogedOn
createdOn: $createdOn
}),
report{
addedCount
diff
conforms
results{
message
severity
constraintComponentName
pathLabel
focusNode{
uri
}
sourceShape {
uri
}
}
}
commit(strict: true)
}
But it's really an UPDATE mutation where you have a URI, a property, and a
BNode object. If you call it twice with 2 different values for the BNode,
the first call creates the graphlet
URI <prop> _BNode(val1)
the second call updates the property
URI <prop> _BNode(val2)
but does not delete _BNode(val1) from the graph in the process
