curl

curl is free and open source software to transfer data from or to a server, using one of the supported protocols.

This tool is useful to run queries using the Neo4j transactional HTTP endpoint. You’ll find more detailed information about this endpoint here.

Here’s a sample request to begin and commit a transaction for creating a dummy node:

curl -i -H 'Content-Type: application/json'  \
https://neo4j:[email protected]:24780/db/data/transaction/commit \
-d '{"statements": [{"statement": "CREATE (n:Person {name: \"Bob\"})"}]}'
