Example Usage

The example below will help us learn how to use this procedure.

The following creates a graph containing two nodes connected by a relationship:
CREATE (f:Foo)-[rel:FOOBAR]->(b:Bar)
apoc.refactor.setType.dataset
The following changes the relationship type from FOOBAR to NEW-TYPE
MATCH (f:Foo)-[rel:FOOBAR]->(b:Bar)
CALL apoc.refactor.setType(rel, 'NEW-TYPE')
YIELD input, output
RETURN input, output
