Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I cannot execute queries. I get a SemanticError claiming The following unsupported clauses were used: MATCH.
A: If your prompt window is showing system$ instead of neo4j$ you changed the active database. Either select neo4j in the “Use database” dropdown list under the “Database information” tab in the top left, or execute :use neo4j in the prompt field.

Q: I cannot copy or paste via the right-click context menu.
A: The IYP console uses the Neo4j Browser, which as an application for some reason does not support this. Please use Ctrl+C / V to copy / paste.

Q: I get some weird JSON output instead of a graph.
A: Sometimes the IYP console defaults to the “Table” output, which is in JSON if you return a pattern in the query. Click on “Graph” at the top left of the result window to change the output mode.
