+# Identify issue boards with GraphQL
+
+This page describes how you can use the GraphiQL explorer to identify
+existing issue boards in the `gitlab-docs` documentation repository.
+
+## Set up the GraphiQL explorer
+
+This procedure presents a substantive example that you can copy and paste into your own
+instance of the [GraphiQL explorer](https://gitlab.com/-/graphql-explorer):
+
+1. Copy the following code excerpt:
+
+   ```graphql
+   query {
+     project(fullPath: "gitlab-org/gitlab-docs") {
+       name
+       forksCount
+       statistics {
+         wikiSize
+       }
+       issuesEnabled
+       boards {
+         nodes {
+           id
+           name
+         }
+       }
+     }
+   }
+   ```
+
+1. Open the [GraphiQL Explorer](https://gitlab.com/-/graphql-explorer) page.
+1. Paste the `query` listed above into the left window of your GraphiQL explorer tool.
+1. Click Play to get the result shown here:
+
+![GraphiQL explorer search for boards](img/sample_issue_boards_v13_2.png)
+
+If you want to view one of these boards, take one of the numeric identifiers shown in the output. From the screenshot, the first identifier is `105011`. Navigate to the following URL, which includes the identifier:
+
+```markdown
+https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-docs/-/boards/105011
+```
+
+For more information on each attribute, see the [GraphQL API Resources](reference/index.md).
