I am pleased to announce that Spring for GraphQL 1.2.4 is now available on Maven Central.

This release closes 23 issues. Thanks to community feedback, there are several bug fixes, some minor improvements, and documentation updates that help us evolve 1.2.x specific features such as pagination support, and exception handling with annotated controller methods.

The 1.2.4 version will ship with Spring Boot 3.1.6 and 3.2.0, to be released later this week. As a reminder, we are not releasing a new minor version with Spring Boot 3.2, and intend to release 1.3 with Spring Boot 3.3 in May, next year…
