What is the useLazyQuery alternative to useSuspense and useBackgroundQuery?

[sa-ma]

useLazyQuery allowed us to fetch data when it was needed and not at runtime but I don't see a way to do that with useSuspense. I tried the skipToken on useBackgroundQuery but the companion useReadQuery throws a Typescript error saying queryRef cannot be undefined

Hey @sa-ma 👋

We have a new hook coming in 3.9 called useLoadableQuery that I think is what you're looking for. We should be releasing this in the next alpha version if you're interested in trying it out!

I will. Thanks.

Apollo Client 3.9 has been released with useLoadableQuery, so I think this has been answered sufficiently :)
