Importing Data

GraphXR enables you to import data from many different sources. You can:

  • Import by drag and drop. Files you can drag and drop include CSV or Excel files or archives, JSON files, data views exported as GraphXR’s GXRF files, or Snapshot archives.

    You can also use Import or Import Views buttons on the Data tab in the Projects panel to locate and import files. Import Views highlights files on your system that have the graphxr extension.
  • Import from Neo4j. You can pull by category or relationship, import the results of database search, use the Expand tool, or use a Cypher query. The Visual Query Builder extension lets you create and run basic no-code visual Cypher queries.

  • Query a CSV file and import it as graph data.

  • Query a connected SQL database and return a table of results that can be imported as graph data.

    Data in a single table can be extracted as categories, relationships, properties, and key values using the Mapping Editor.
  • Query a JSON file or perform a Gremlin query on a suitable connected database.

  • Load a project’s data View or access shared views.

  • For Enterprise users, advanced GraphXR extensions can be provided to import data from other graph or composite databases, and to craft reproducible workflows for data import.
