Description

Having issues getting VSCode extension (apollographql.vscode-apollo) to find my graphql file. Am I missing some configuration?

apollo.config.cjs file:

module.exports = {
    client: {
        service: {
            name: "default",
            localSchemaFile: './src/schema.graphql'
        },
    },
};

folder structure:

- src/
       - schema.graphql
- apollo.config.cjs

Research direction

Start with the reported apollo.config.cjs configuration and the src/schema.graphql path, then reproduce the VS Code extension's failure to discover the local schema. Check how the extension resolves localSchemaFile relative to the shown folder structure; done means Intellisense finds and uses the schema.
