Query Structure

Source Steps

Adding Nodes and Edges

Filter and conditionally select elements in your graph. These operations allow you to filter and select specific elements from your graph based on conditions.

Conditional Steps

Anonymous Traversals

Deleting Items

Updating Items

Manipulate and query your graph data with powerful operations

Operational Steps

Find the shortest path between two nodes using Breadth-First Search.

Helix Query Language (HQL) is a graph query language designed for traversing and manipulating graph databases. It provides a declarative way to define schemas, query data, and perform graph operations.

Introduction

Add image, video, and other HTML elements

Traversal Steps

The navigation field in mint.json defines the pages that go in the navigation menu
