" summary

A serverless GraphQL endpoint is created in Atlas against a FIFA‑22 dataset of about 19,000 players, with an added World Cup finals collection related by country so a single query returns player stats plus historical team results. Authentication uses API keys; Postman proves external access. Live demo shows sorting, limiting and fuzzy Atlas Search via a custom resolver, and a separate custom resolver to call TikTok for embeds. The web app is built and shown working, though live coding has minor setup hiccups.
