Example

The example below is taken from the standard setup of InterActor. A Neo4jQuery retrieves the trail of nodes that the user has visited, and sends the data to a TableView. When the user clicks a row in the Nodehistory TableView, another Neo4jQuery is executed.

On the incoming trigger, the (%).data from the success event of the Neo4jQuery is mapped to the #data Function parameter of the TableView.

On the outgoing trigger, the (%).data.nodeid value is mapped to the $params.id function parameter of the second Neo4jQuery. This trigger is only executed when there is a rowClick event.

A more generic description of triggers is available on the Triggers page.
