Build Graph Recipe

The Build graph recipe writes a saved Visual Graph configuration into a graph database.

Use this recipe after designing your graph and creating a saved configuration in the Visual Graph Editor webapp. The output can be the built-in graph database stored in a Dataiku Folder, or a Neo4j database.

Input / Output

Input

• Saved configurations dataset: Dataset containing the saved graph configuration you want to build.

• Datasets used by the saved configuration: Add all source datasets referenced by the node and edge groups in the selected configuration.

Warning

You must explicitly provide all required source datasets as inputs to the recipe. Due to Dataiku’s security model, the recipe will fail if any source dataset defined in the configuration is not declared as an input.

Output

• Output folder: Dataiku Folder used to store the built graph and its metadata.

Settings

Select a saved configuration

Choose the saved configuration to materialize.

Database type

Choose Built-in to build the graph database in the output folder, or Neo4j to build it in a Neo4j database.

Neo4j connection

For Neo4j builds, select the writable Neo4j connection to use.

Database name

For Neo4j builds, enter the target Neo4j database name. If the database already exists, it is recreated before the graph is built.
