Search a Graph Visualization

You can search using keywords or run a conditional search using the Search graph box directly in a graph visualization in Graph Studio.

• Keyword Search: To perform a keyword search, start typing the keyword in the search input box. The search results are shown highlighted in the graph visualization.

• Conditional Search: Using this advanced search feature, you can build conditional filters on graph entities (vertices and edges), combining entity types, labels, properties, and operators.

  The following two options are supported for a conditional search:

  • Search by Label:

    1. Click in the search input box.

    2. Click Search by Label.

    3. Click the input text box and select (or deselect) the Vertices and Edges as required.

       The filter is applied immediately to the graph visualization. The following example filters only COUNTRIES vertices.

  • Search by Property:

    1. Click in the search input box.

    2. Click Search by Property.

    3. Click + to add the property attribute to search.

       1. Select the graph element to which the property belongs.

          Supported values are: Vertex, Edge, or Both.

       2. Select a property name.

       3. Select an operator.

       4. Enter the property value that you wish to search.

          Note that you can configure a single value or a list of values to search.

    4. Optionally, repeat the previous step to add as many rows for conditional search.

    5. Set the Logic operator value when multiple rows are configured for a conditional search.

       • OR returns results that match any of the specified conditions.

       • AND returns results that match all specified conditions.

       The following example shows a search for France or Japan using the country_name property.
