Neo4j Server

Neo4j Graph Database Self-Managed can be downloaded from the Deployment Center. This includes a web server that can host different HTTP modules. If you are using the default configuration, the web server will be started and host the BROWSER module (Neo4j Browser) at port 7474 when you start Neo4j. The BROWSER module is available in Community Edition and Enterprise Edition.

To use Browser with a Neo4j Server:

  1. Install Neo4j self-managed, available in different packages from the Deployment Center.

  2. Ensure your current working directory is <neo4j-home>.

  3. Using the default configuration, start Neo4j with the command:

    bin/neo4j start

    Neo4j starts a web server with the BROWSER module (Neo4j Browser) on port 7474.

  4. Point your web browser to http://localhost:7474/browser.

If you do not want to host Neo4j Browser when you start Neo4j, remove BROWSER from the comma-separated list of the configuration setting dbms.http_enabled_modules.

The following web browsers are supported:

  • Chrome (Latest version)

  • Firefox (Latest version)

  • Edge (Latest version)

Note that Internet Explorer is not supported.

For details on how to set up a connection to a Neo4j DBMS in Neo4j Browser, see Connect to a Neo4j Instance.

New versions of Neo4j Browser are released independently of Neo4j Server. The Browser version bundled with Neo4j Server is the latest at the time of the Neo4j Server release. Consequently, when used with a Neo4j server, the Browser version may not be the latest one, and new Browser functionality may not be immediately available. If you cannot wait for the next release of Neo4j Server and access to the latest version of Browser, refer to one of the other deployment options. Additionally, you can always find the latest version of Neo4j Browser at https://browser.neo4j.io/.
