Counting with GraphQL Permissions Issue

Questions and Answers
3

In my case, I used the wrong format of the API ID.
resolverOf value should contain exact API, e.g. ID is news-item => resolverOf: 'application::news-item.news-item.count',
And so is in the resolver,

resolver: async (obj, options) => {
    return await strapi.api['news-item'].services['news-item'].count(options.where || {});
},

You can use file structure for reference, where each chain in the call is a folder name.

api 
 - news-item
   - services
     - news-item.js
