# Get a merge queue's dependency graph

> Returns the queue's dependency graph: which pull requests the engine considers related, and why.

**This does not tell you what runs next.** The engine schedules on a priority that cascades backwards through the graph and on a pending-failure gate, and neither is in this payload — `priorityValue` here is each pull request's own value, not the cascaded one. For dispatch order use `GET /v2/merge-queues/{id}/order`.

Edges are transitively reduced, so an indirect dependency appears through the node between its endpoints rather than as its own edge. They mean overlapping impacted targets, not a stacked-branch relationship.

Only pull requests the engine has admitted to its graph appear: anything past the graph's soft cap, or not yet ready, is absent. `includeImpactedTargets` adds the target lists that explain each node and edge; it is off by default because populating it costs a lookup per distinct commit.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /openapi-v2.json get /v2/merge-queues/{id}/graph
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Trunk API
  version: 2.0.0
  description: >-
    The Trunk public API. Every endpoint is scoped to a single organization and
    requires a credential.


    ## Authentication


    For automation, send an API key as `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. An
    organization admin creates one in the Trunk app under **Settings → Developer
    → API Keys**, and chooses the merge-queue permissions it holds. A key with
    no permissions can read merge queues but change nothing. Those permissions
    scope merge queue only: every key can use the Flaky Tests and Dynamic CI
    endpoints, including their writes, whatever permissions it holds.


    A short-lived first-party token in the `x-trunk-token` header is what the
    `trunk` CLI sends after `trunk auth login`.


    A GitHub Actions job can upload impacted targets with no Trunk secret: the
    `trunk-io/login` action exchanges the run's own GitHub credential (its OIDC
    token, or on a pull request from a fork its `GITHUB_TOKEN`) for a
    short-lived first-party token. That token is accepted only by `PUT
    /v2/impacted-targets`, for the run's own repository — and on a fork pull
    request, only for that pull request and its head sha.


    ## Errors


    Every 4xx and 5xx response is a `ErrorResponse`: `{ "error": { "code",
    "message" } }`. Switch on `code`, which is stable; `message` is prose and
    may change at any time.


    **An authorization denial on a read is reported as `404`, not `403`** —
    whether a resource exists must not leak across organizations, so a resource
    in another organization is indistinguishable from one that does not exist.
    `403 INSUFFICIENT_PERMISSIONS` means the credential is valid but is not
    permitted the action (or carries no organization).


    Every response carries an `X-Request-Id` header. Quote it in support
    requests.


    ## Rate limiting


    Requests are limited per organization (currently 100 requests/second).
    Exceeding it returns `429` with `RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED`; retry with backoff.
    Note that the limit is enforced at the edge, which does not yet wrap its
    `429` in the `ErrorResponse` envelope described above — treat any `429` as
    rate limiting regardless of body.


    ## Compatibility


    Within v2, Trunk may add: new endpoints, new **optional** response fields,
    new members to any enum (including new `code` values, new queue-entry
    states, and new providers), and new optional request parameters. **Clients
    must tolerate values and fields they do not recognize** rather than failing
    closed — a client that switches exhaustively over an enum will break when a
    member is added. Removals and semantic changes require a new major version.


    ## Provider support


    Merge queues, verification runs and checks are **GitHub-only** today;
    `Check.provider` has a single member for that reason. Impacted-target
    uploads additionally require a `github.com` repository named `owner/repo`.
    The `Provider` enum lists values the repository index can store, not
    surfaces that are fully supported.


    ## Not yet available


    A pull request's numeric **position** in its queue is not exposed, and list
    responses are not ordered by queue position. `GET
    /v2/merge-queues/{id}/order` returns the order the engine will consider pull
    requests in, but an array index there is not a wait: use a pending entry's
    `directlyAhead` rather than counting, and `GET
    /v2/pull-requests/{id}/queue-entry-estimate` for when it is expected to
    merge (on queues that serve estimates). This API delivers no events of its
    own — poll it, or subscribe to [Merge Queue's
    webhooks](https://docs.trunk.io/merge-queue/webhooks). `Idempotency-Key` is
    not yet honored, so a mutation that times out must be reconciled by reading
    the resource back rather than blindly retried.

        | `testing` | A verification run is in flight for this entry. |

        | `testsPassed` | Verification succeeded; waiting to merge. |

        | `merged` | Terminal — merged into the target branch. |

        | `failed` | Terminal — verification or the merge itself failed. |

        | `cancelled` | Terminal — removed from the queue (dequeued, or
        cancelled by the engine). |

        | `pendingFailure` | A failure is expected because an entry ahead
        failed, but this entry has not been re-tested yet. Not terminal: it
        usually returns to `pending` or `testing`. |

  securitySchemes:
    apiKey:
      type: http
      scheme: bearer
      description: >-
        An API key, sent as `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. An organization admin
        creates one in the Trunk app under **Settings → Developer → API Keys**
        and chooses the merge-queue permissions it holds; a key with none can
        read merge queues but change nothing. Those permissions scope merge
        queue only: every key can use the Flaky Tests and Dynamic CI endpoints,
        including their writes, whatever permissions it holds.
    trunkToken:
      type: apiKey
      in: header
      name: x-trunk-token
      description: >-
        A short-lived first-party token, sent in the `x-trunk-token` header. The
        `trunk` CLI sends one after `trunk auth login`, and the `trunk-io/login`
        action obtains one for a GitHub Actions run.


        **A token from a GitHub Actions run can only upload impacted targets**
        (`PUT /v2/impacted-targets`), for the repository the run belongs to;
        every other endpoint refuses it.
