Hi Mattias, Even if I pass nulls, I will still have to build an index on some key (property). I do not want to do that because it adds the property index overhead for something that I am not actually using.
By the way, does the underlying code for index.get(kay, value, start, end) iterate over all the relationships of start and checks if one is connected to end, or it does perform a direct look up to get the edges between (start, end)? Thanks.
