+==========================
+
+The AIOHTTPWebsocketsTransport is an alternative to the :ref:`websockets_transport`,
+using the `aiohttp` dependency instead of the `websockets` dependency.
+
+It also supports both:
+
+ - the `Apollo websockets transport protocol`_.
+ - the `GraphQL-ws websockets transport protocol`_
+
+It will propose both subprotocols to the backend and detect the supported protocol
+from the response http headers returned by the backend.
+
+.. note::
+    For some backends (graphql-ws before `version 5.6.1`_ without backwards compatibility), it may be necessary to specify
+    only one subprotocol to the backend. It can be done by using
+    :code:`subprotocols=[AIOHTTPWebsocketsTransport.GRAPHQLWS_SUBPROTOCOL]`
+    or :code:`subprotocols=[AIOHTTPWebsocketsTransport.APOLLO_SUBPROTOCOL]` in the transport arguments.
+
+This transport allows to do multiple queries, mutations and subscriptions on the same websocket connection.
