Apollo in React provides useQuery to fetch GraphQL data and useMutation to execute mutations.

Following is the example of useQuery and useMutation hooks:

import { gql, useQuery, useMutation } from "@apollo/client";

const GET_CARS = gql`
  query GetCards {
    cars {
      id
      brand
    }
  }
`;

const ADD_CAR = gql`
  mutation AddCar($brand: String!) {
    addCar(brand: $brand) {
      id
      brand
    }
  }
`;

function Cars({ onCarSelected }) {
  const { loading, error, data } = useQuery(GET_CARS);
  const [addCar, otherDetails] = useMutation(ADD_CAR);
  const inputRef = useRef();

  if (loading) return "Loading...";
  if (error) return `Error! ${error.message}`;

  return (
    <div>
      <select name="car" onChange={onCarSelected}>
        {data.cars.map(({ id, brand }) => (
          <option key={id} value={brand}>
            {brand}
          </option>
        ))}
      </select>

      <form
        onSubmit={(e) => {
          e.preventDefault();
          addCar({ variables: { brand: inputRef.current.value } });
          // post details related to mutation like { data, loading, error } can be accessed from otherDetails
        }}
      >
        <input ref={inputRef} />
        <button type="submit">Add Car</button>
      </form>
    </div>
  );
}
