Deleting Filtered Vertices (2.2.7)

Function

This API is used to delete the vertex set that meets the filter criteria.

**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

URI

POST /ges/v1.0/{project_id}/graphs/{graph_name}/vertices/action?action_id=delete

Request Parameters

**Table 2** Request body parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
labels	Either labels or vertexFilters is mandatory.	String	Filter criteria of the vertex type
vertexFilters	Either labels or vertexFilters is mandatory.	Object	Filter criteria, in JSONArray format. Vertices are filtered by property. For details, see vertexFilters parameters.
begin	No	Integer	Start of a filter range. The value ranges from 0 to uint32_MAX. The default value is 0.
end	No	Integer	End of a filter range. The value ranges from 0 to uint32_MAX. The default value is uint32_MAX. Note: If begin and end are not set, the vertices in the entire graph are filtered by default. You can set both parameters based on site requirements (for example, 10 million).
limit	No	Integer	Maximum number of vertices that can be deleted. By default, all vertices that meet the conditions are deleted.

**Table 3** vertexFilters parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
propertyName	Either propertyName or degree is mandatory.	String	Property name
predicate	Yes	String	Predicate. Available values are =, <, >, <=, >=, range, has, hasNot, full_text_match, full_text_prefix, full_text_wildcard, full_text_regexp, full_text_fuzzy, and full_text_combination.
values	No	String	Value of the property or the degree of a vertex. If predicate is full_text_combination, the value cannot be a string.
type	No	String	Logical operator of the filter criteria. Possible values are and and or. The default value is and.
degree	Either propertyName or degree is mandatory.	String	Degree of a vertex. The options are in, out, and both. The predicate can be =, <, >, <=, >=, or !=.

Response Parameters

**Table 4** Response body parameters
Parameter	Type	Description
errorMessage	String	System prompt. If execution succeeds, this parameter may be left blank. If execution fails, this parameter is used to display the error message.
errorCode	String	System prompt code. If execution succeeds, this parameter may be left blank. If execution fails, this parameter is used to display the error code.
jobId	String	ID of the vertex query job. This parameter is left blank when the request fails. NOTE: You can view the job execution status and obtain the return result by querying the job ID. For details, see Querying Job Status on the Service Plane (1.0.0).

Example Request

Delete vertices that meet filter criteria (only the asynchronous mode is supported). The vertex type filter criteria are movies and user, and the property name is Age.

POST https://{SERVER_URL}/ges/v1.0/{project_id}/graphs/{graph_name}/vertices/action?action_id=delete
  {
	"labels": [
		"movies",
		"user"
	],
	"vertexFilters": [
		{
			"propertyName": "Age",
			"predicate": "=",
			"values": [
				"18-24"
			]
		}
	]
  }
