When developing a web service that requires flexible queries with varying fields, which API approach is most advantageous?
- GraphQL
- RESTful API
- SOAP API

It allows clients to specify the structure of the response, reducing over-fetching or under-fetching of data. RESTful APIs, SOAP APIs, and WebSockets might not provide the same level of flexibility and ease in handling dynamic queries.
