Updating Specified Properties of Vertices and Edges by Importing a File

Function

This API is used to update specified properties of vertices and edges by importing a file.

To prevent failures in restoring the updated graph data during system restarting, do not delete the data stored on OBS when the graph is in use.

URI

POST /ges/v1.0/{project_id}/graphs/{graph_name}/action?action_id=import-properties

**Table 1** URI parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
project_id	Yes	String	Project ID. For details about how to obtain the project ID, see Obtaining a Project ID.
graph_name	Yes	String	Graph name

Example Request

Import a file to update specified properties of vertices and edges. The vertex file directory is datasets/movie/movie.csv, and the vertex data set format is CSV. The edge file directory is datasets/movie/ranking_edge.csv, and the edge data set format is CSV.

Request Parameters

The format of the CSV file for updating properties is as follows:

Vertex file (including label): vertex ID,label,property_1...property_n
Vertex file (excluding label): vertex ID,property_1...property_n
Edge file: source vertex ID, target vertex ID, label, edge ID, property_1...property_n

**Table 2** Request body parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
vertexsetPath	Either vertexsetPath or edgesetPath is mandatory.	String	Vertex file directory or name
vertexsetFormat	No	String	Format of the vertex data set. Currently, only the CSV format is supported. The CSV format is used by default.
vertexProperties	Mandatory if vertexsetPath exists	Object	Label of a vertex and list of properties to be updated in a vertex file, in JSONArray format For details, see Table 3.
edgesetPath	Either vertexsetPath or edgesetPath is mandatory.	String	Edge file directory or name
edgesetFormat	No	String	Format of the edge data set. Currently, only the CSV format is supported. The CSV format is used by default.
edgeProperties	Mandatory if edgesetPath exists	Object	Label of an edge and list of properties to be updated in an edge file, in JSONArray format For details, see Table 4.
targetProperties	Mandatory if edgesetPath exists	Object	Indicates property information used to distinguish duplicate edges in the edge file, in JSONArray format. For details, see Table 5.
delimiter	No	Character	Field separator in a CSV file. The default value is comma (,). The default element separator in a field of the list/set type is semicolon (;).
trimQuote	No	Character	Field quote character in a CSV file. The default value is double quotation marks ("). They are used to enclose a field if the field contains separators or line breaks.
obsParameters	Yes	String	OBS authentication parameters. For details, see Table 6.
vertexFileContainLabel	No	Boolean	Whether the vertex file contains label information. This parameter is optional. The default value is true.

**Table 3** vertexProperties parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
label	Yes	String	Name of a label
properties	Yes	Object	Properties to be updated, in JSONArray format. The sequence of the properties must be the same as that in the vertex file.

**Table 4** edgeProperties parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
label	Yes	String	Name of a label
properties	Yes	Object	Properties to be updated, in JSONArray format. The sequence of the properties must be the same as that in the edge file.

**Table 5** targetProperties parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
label	Yes	String	Name of a label
properties	Yes	Object	Edge ID properties, in JSONArray format. Currently, only one property is supported.

**Table 6** obsParameters parameter description
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
accessKey	Yes	string	AK value
secretKey	Yes	string	SK value
