Strawberry GraphQL @ 0.341.0

Released November 7, 2026 at 1:04 PM GMT+00:00

This release adds support for strawberry.Maybe on the fields of @strawberry.pydantic.input models, to tell the fields a client left out apart from the ones it set to null , like on other input types:

@strawberry.pydantic.input
class UpdateUserInput(pydantic.BaseModel):
    name: strawberry.Maybe[Annotated[str, StringConstraints(min_length=1)]]
    nickname: strawberry.Maybe[str | None]

A Maybe field is None when the client leaves it out, and a strawberry.Some with the validated value when it sends one, so model_dump(exclude_unset=True) only has the fields the client sent. Pydantic validates the value inside the Maybe , and reports errors at the field, like ["input", "name"] . Maybe[T] doesn’t accept null , while Maybe[T | None] gives Some(None) for it. The fields don’t need a default, and Maybe still can’t be used on output types.
