java - How to add multiple values to a property in neo4j

Question

I am new to neo4j and trying to add multiple values to a property of a node.How to do it?

 create (e:Employee{name:"Sam",languages:["C","C#"]})

Tried this but didn't find any proper way to add multiple values to an attribute.

Answer 1

Properties cannot have object values. If you're looking to store multiple properties on language, and those properties all belong to the language and not any other entity, then you should model Language as a node. You can store properties on the relationship between the employee and language as well if required.

Then you'll end up with something like this:

create (l:Language {name:"C", otherProperty:"property value"})
create (e:Employee {name:"Sam"})
create (e)-[:SPEAKS {level:"Fluent"}]->(l)
