Re-explain
Input types are used for arguments in mutations and queries. They can only contain scalars, enums, lists, and other input types.
input CreateUserInput {
name: String!
email: String!
age: Int
}
input UpdateUserInput {
name: String
email: String
age: Int
}
type Mutation {
createUser(input: CreateUserInput!): User!
updateUser(id: ID!, input: UpdateUserInput!): User!
}
