Label: :IA_Function
Property: type: CypherQuery
Inherits from: Function
Executes a Cypher statement on an OpenCypher-powered database and returns its results.
Deprecated. Use Query instead.
Properties
Key | Description | Default value | Possible values |
---|---|---|---|
cypher |
The Cypher statement that has to be executed. | any valid Cypher | |
params.{myParameter} |
Parameters that are to be passed to the Cypher statement. | a literal value | |
process |
Determines whether the query result should be processed to a set of nodes and relations. | false | true|false 0|1 |
store |
The graph store against which the cypher statement is to be executed. | application | name of a configured store |
All properties can also be passed as parameters via an incoming trigger. To do so, include a property key on the incoming trigger with a $
or #
as a prefix.
Outgoing triggers

Example
Imagine the following interaction graph:
When you run this example, the MyQuery1 returns a list of labels and counts in MyTable1. When you click on a row with a count < 5
, it displays the nodes in MyNetworkView. Otherwise, a list of names is displayed in MyTable2.
The first IA_CypherQuery
node MyQuery1, has a type:success
trigger that tp the IA_TableView
node MyTable1. The trigger maps the (%).data
element of the event data of the success
event to the #data
property of MyTable1.
MyTable1 has a type:rowClick
trigger to a IA_CypherQuery
MyQuery2. This tigger maps the (%).data.label
element of the event data of the rowclick
event to the $params.selectedLabel
property of MyQuery2.
MyQuery2 takes $params.selectedLabel
as parameter for the statement in the cypher
property.
When MyQuery2 executes successfully, the success
event occurs. To determine which triggers should be executed, the matching criteria on the outgoing [:TRIGGER]
relations are considered:
-
(%).data[0].destination
-
type
One trigger executes when type:success
AND (%).data[0].destination:NetworkView
. This trigger maps (%).processed.nodes
and (%).processed.relations
to the #nodes
and relations
properties of the IA_NetworkView
MyNetworkView.
The other trigger executes when type:success
AND (%).data[0].destination:TableView
. This trigger maps (%).data[#].name
to #data
property of the IA_TableView
MyTable2.
