apoc.create.setLabels
Procedure
apoc.create.setLabels(nodes Any, labels [String])
- sets the given labels to the given node(s).
Non-matching labels are removed from the nodes.
Usage Examples
The examples in this section are based on the following sample graph:
CREATE (:Movie {title: 'A Few Good Men', genre: 'Drama'});
We can move the 'genre' property to a label and remove it as a property, as well as removing any other labels, by running the following query:
MATCH (n:Movie)
CALL apoc.create.setLabels( n, [ n.genre ] )
YIELD node
REMOVE node.genre
RETURN node;
node |
---|
(:Drama {title: "A Few Good Men"}) |
If we want to only add new labels and not remove existing ones, see apoc.create.addLabels
