Enable automatic UUIDs

This procedure is part of a set of procedures that handle automatic adding of UUID properties, via the UUID Handler Lifecycle. The UUID handler is a transaction event handler that automatically adds the UUID property to a provided label and for the provided property name.

By default automatic adding of UUIDs is disabled. We can enable it by setting the following property in apoc.conf:

apoc.conf

apoc.uuid.enabled=true
