Hi Rien,

The document you linked to explains also that subgraph permissions in 3.1
are only enabled for procedures, not for Cypher. This means that there is
no way in 3.1 to control access to label/relationshiptype/property
information for users running Cypher queries. So if you want to provide
access to only a specific subgraph, you need to create a procedure that
accesses that subgraph, and then give users that do not have access (eg. a
no-access custom role) specific access to that procedure only. This
'permission boosting' can also be used to give read-only users write access
to subgraphs (via custom write-procedures).

Note that even though this feature is not enabled for normal Cypher, you
can still embed one of these custom procedures in a normal Cypher query. So
a read only user that can run a read only Cypher query could have a
procedure that does some specific write action run within that Cypher
query. The users permission level will be boosted within the procedure
only, while still not allowing the user to perform writes within the Cypher
part of the query.

Regards, Craig
