If you need to work in GraphQL without an internet connection, you can use the [Altair GraphQL Client](https://altair.sirmuel.design/) for offline access.

- If you’re using **Basic** authentication for GraphQL, download the application from [https://altair.sirmuel.design/#download](https://altair.sirmuel.design/#download), then set the **Authorization** header.  
The token used in the authorization header is **username:password** encoding in base64.

- If you’re using **Windows** authentication for GraphQL, you can install Altair as a browser extension. No header is required.
