Dear Michael, Thanks for the answer.

For people used to the tool and have been working with it for long, that documentation does make sense, but for people new to the technology, it's too abstract and confusing (and I have 20 years+ of dev experience). 2) Even current documentation is limited to a very simple 2 nodes types and >> a simple relation between them, can't find how to use a more complex graph. >> > here is some other documentation: > > https://neo4j.com/developer/guide-import-csv/#_super_fast_batch_importer_for_huge_datasets > https://neo4j.com/blog/import-10m-stack-overflow-questions/ > Thanks for the links, that I've seen as well as some other use case. For my understanding, this still a simple relation between 2 different nodes. What I mean by more complex graph is something that can be done in Cypher, such as some "if/else" comparisons, etc. I'll give it another shot, even if it means duplicating the data or so (cases when multipl ids are present, for example, a "Content" can have "Creator ID", "Category ID", "Size ID", so being able to match with more than 2 nodes at a time would be awesome) 3) Import is supported only on an empty database, so there is no way to use >> it to import a batch of data into existing database, or create a complex >> graph by importing nodes and more complex relations. >> > Yes, this is currently a limitation, but it is meant to be accomodated in > the future. > Thanks, that's a great news, hopefully it's a near future, as it's highly important when needing to work with high frequency data that needs to be imported in batches.
