I've been delving into policies for my GraphQL API within Azure API Management (APIM), and I've noticed that certain policies such as mocking and caching appear to be disabled. This has left me wondering whether these policies are not supported for GraphQL APIs within Azure APIM. Could someone kindly provide clarification on this matter?
I've attached a screenshot for reference.
Additionally, I'd greatly appreciate guidance on where I can find relevant documentation detailing the supported policies specifically tailored for GraphQL APIs within Azure APIM.
Thank you in advance for any assistance or insights you can provide!

Enablement/Disablement of Built-in API Policies depend Managed gateway pricing tier (Classic, v2, Consumption) and self-hosted gateway. Managed and self-hosted gateway.
The detailed documentation of every built-in API policies is here.
Thanks, I have explored as per your guidance. However, this isn't exactly what I'm searching for. In my case, as I'm on the developer tier, my managed gateway is Classic. For example, when I explore supported policies, I notice that "Mock response" is available for all pricing tiers and self-hosted gateways. Yet, in the screenshot below, this particular policy appears disabled for my GraphQL API. This raises the question: are disabled policies not accessible for GraphQL? Additionally, I'm curious if there's any documentation outlining what policies are available for GraphQL.
@Arpan Banerjee Thanks for reaching out. Below are the GraphQL Unsupported policies.
validate-content, validate-parameters, validate-headers, validate-status-code (GraphQL has a separate request validation policy validate-graphql-request)
send-one-way-request | Doesn't make sense for GraphQL APIs.
set-method | GraphQL APIs allow only POST (and GET, if supported)
cache-lookup, cache-store, cache-store-value, cache-remove-value, cache-lookup-value (GraphQL caching will have a separate policy)
json-to-xml, xml-to-json, xml-transform | XML is not supported in GraphQL APIs
publish-to-dapr, invoke-dapr-binding | Doesn't make sense for GraphQL APIs
