Example

This function creates virtual nodes and relationships entirely in memory; no pre-existing graph data is required.

The following query creates a virtual path between two new virtual nodes connected by a virtual relationship:

CALL
  apoc.create.virtualPath(
    ['Person'],
    {name: 'Alice'},
    'KNOWS',
    {since: 2020},
    ['Person'],
    {name: 'Bob'}
  )
  YIELD from, rel, to
RETURN from, rel, to

Results
from	rel	to
(:Person {name: "Alice"})	[:KNOWS {since: 2020}]	(:Person {name: "Bob"})

Nothing is written to the graph - the returned nodes and relationship exist only for the duration of the query.
