Querying General Information About a Graph
Function
This API is used to query the general information about a graph, such as the numbers of vertices and edges.
URI
GET /ges/v1.0/{project_id}/graphs/{graph_name}/summary?label_details={labelDetails}
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 |
label_details |
No |
Boolean |
Whether to return the number of vertices and edges under each label. The default value is false. If this parameter is set to true, the numbers of vertices and edges under each label are returned. |

- To return the count of vertices under different labels, when creating a vertex index, set the index type to GlobalCompositeVertexIndex, ensure that hasLabel is true, and keep the property list empty. Refer to Creating an Index for detailed instructions on how to create an index.
- To return the count of edges under different labels, when creating an edge index, set the index type to GlobalCompositeEdgeIndex, ensure that hasLabel is true, and keep the property list empty. Refer to Creating an Index for detailed instructions on how to create an index.
Response Parameters
Parameter |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
errorMessage |
String |
System prompt.
|
errorCode |
String |
System prompt.
|
jobId |
String |
ID of an asynchronous job The API for querying the job ID is called to check the task execution status and obtain the returned result. For details, see Querying Job Status on the Service Plane (1.0.0). For details about the calling result parameters, see Table 3. |
Parameter |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
vertexNum |
Integer |
Number of vertices in a graph. In multi-label scenarios, the value is repeatedly counted based on the number of label occurrences. To count the actual number of vertices, run the match (n) where n is not null return count(*) statement. |
edgeNum |
Integer |
Number of edges in a graph |
labelDetails |
Object |
Numbers of vertices and edges under each label. This parameter is available only when label_details in the URL is set to true. |
Parameter |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
labelInVertex |
Object |
Numbers of vertices under each label. |
labelInEdge |
Object |
Numbers of edges under each label. |
errorMessage |
String |
System prompt. When there is no vertex index or edge index, an error message is displayed. Otherwise, the field remains empty. |
errorCode |
String |
System prompt. When there is no vertex index or edge index, an error code is displayed. Otherwise, the field remains empty. |
Example Request
Query general information about a graph, such as the numbers of vertices and edges. The value true indicates that the numbers of vertices and edges of different labels are returned.
GET http://{SERVER_URL}/ges/v1.0/{project_id}/graphs/{graph_name}/summary?label_details=true

SERVER_URL: Address for accessing a graph. For details about its value, see Using Service Plane APIs.
