Using Full-text Indexes in Neo4j

Module overview

A full-text index is based upon string values only, but provides additional search capabilities that you do not get from RANGE or TEXT indexes that you have just learned about. A full-text schema index can be used for:

  • Node or relationship properties.

  • Single property or multiple properties.

  • Single or multiple types of nodes (labels).

  • Single or multiple types of relationships.

One difference with full-text indexes in Neo4j is that you must explicitly specify their use whereas regular indexes are automatically used.

In this module, you will:

  • Learn about using full-text indexes in Neo4j and why you would use them.

  • Create a full-text index.

  • Use a full-text index.
