GraphQLError: Cannot query field <FIELD> on type "Query"

[janhartmann]

After downloading my schema, I try to generate the TypeScript types using:

apollo codegen:generate  --schema=./src/data/schema.json --target=typescript

But this gives the following error:

$ apollo codegen:generate  --schema=./src/data/schema.json --target=typescript
 ✔ Loading Apollo config
 ✔ Scanning for GraphQL queries (663 found)
 ✖ Generating query files with 'typescript' target
   → Cannot query field "machines" on type "Query"

I only have one GetMachines.graphql which is:

query GetMachines {
  machines {
    id
    name
  }
}

The generated schema.json contains this machines:

  "__schema": {
    "queryType": {
      "name": "Query"
    },
    "mutationType": {
      "name": "Mutation"
    },
    "subscriptionType": null,
    "types": [
      {
        "kind": "OBJECT",
        "name": "Query",
        "description": "",
        "fields": [
          {
            "name": "machines",
            "description": "",
            "args": [],
            "type": {

I can resolve this issue by manually removing node_modules/apollo/node_modules/graphql directory. So it appears that the version of graphql (14.0.2) I am running is conflicting with Apollo CLI
