How to pass BigInt as an argument type to the query?

[winsoroaks]

Hi all. I am trying to pass an argument that is of BigInt type as a condition to my query but was not successful.

query MyQuery($number: BigInt!) {
  counts(where: { number: $number }) {

im getting

TypeError: Do not know how to serialize a BigInt
    at JSON.stringify (<anonymous>)
    at createRequestBody (index.js:381:32)

i then tweaked my schema for the number to be of type String and make the number to be of type String! in the query. i then ran into

Error: Variable "$number" of type "String!" used in position expecting type "BigInt".

Please let me know if this is the wrong place to ask the question. Thank you.

The error does not come from this library but from createRequestBody which is probably from the library that sends your gql requests
