Cypher Query Panel

The Cypher Query panel can be used execute queries against a Neo4j instance that has been configured in the Product Configuration page. The queries are written in the Cypher language and directly go against the Neo4j instance, bypassing TopBraid itself. This means that the results will reflect the current state of Neo4j, and not of TopBraid’s copy.

In a typical life cycle, if you are more familiar with Cypher than SPARQL, you can use this panel to query Neo4j, then click on the resulting assets (if they map to TopBraid through a uri property). You can then for example do edits of the edit in TopBraid and use the Push Changes Button if necessary to update Neo4j.
