| ## Setting a DQL Schema | |||
| Your DQL schema can be updated using ```dgraph live``` as documented at https://dgraph.io/docs/howto/importdata/live-loader/#importing-data-on-dgraph-cloud. Simply omit the -f <file> option to only upload the schema. | |||
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we change this to the API way of updating a DQL schema using the /alter endpoint, instead of using the Live Loader to upload a schema ? Since we demonstrate the /admin API for updating the GraphQL schema on this page, let's stick to the same method (via API) for DQL as well.
Also, as opposed to the Live Loader, the 'alter' endpoint allows for updating specific parts of the schema only. The Live Loader has limitations and can only be used to uploada new schema. So better to remove any content for Live Loader here from the Cloud -> Schema page.

This topic of updating the schema only included GraphQL instructions. Added a brief note about DQL by linking to the admin/schema page.
