Graphs

property

A named value stored on a node or a relationship.

Also written: properties

Example

name is stored on the (:Person) node, title and released are stored on the (:Movie) node. role is stored on the relationship.

cypher
MATCH path = (:Person {name: 'Tom Hanks'})-[r:ACTED_IN]->(m:Movie)
RETURN path, m.released, r.role

m.released reads a named value from the (:Movie) node. r.role reads one from the relationship. role sits there rather than on either node, because Tom Hanks is Woody in this film and not in the others he acted in.
