# Enhancements to pagination for GraphQL connections

In addition to `edges`, GraphQL connections now have a `nodes` field. When you only query `node` on `edges`, you can simplify the query.

For example:

`{ connection { edges { node { fields } } }`

can be simplified to:

`{ connection { nodes { fields } } }`

`PageInfo` has been expanded as well to include `startCursor` and `endCursor`.

When these fields are used in tandem, it can simplify the shape of return data for pagination.

Previous query format:

`{ connection { edges { cursor node { fields } } pageInfo { hasNextPage } } }`

Improved query format:

`{ connection { nodes { fields } pageInfo { hasNextPage endCursor } } }`
