Neo4j Create Resource

AI-generated

Overview

This node creates a new resource record in a Neo4j graph database and links it to an existing business and resource type. It is useful for managing resources such as rooms, equipment, or seats within a business context, where each resource belongs to a specific resource type and business.

Typical use cases include:

  • Adding new physical assets (e.g., chairs, rooms) to a business inventory system.
  • Structuring resource data in a graph database to enable complex queries and relationships.
  • Automating resource creation workflows integrated with other systems via n8n.

For example, you could create a "Room A" resource of type "Meeting Room" linked to a particular business, specifying its capacity and additional properties like features.

Properties

Name Meaning
Business ID The unique identifier (UUID) of the business that owns this resource.
Resource Type ID The unique identifier (UUID) of the resource type this resource belongs to.
Name The name or label of the resource instance (e.g., "Chair 1", "Room A").
Capacity Optional numeric value representing the capacity of the resource (e.g., number of people).
Properties (JSON String) Optional JSON-formatted string containing additional custom properties (e.g., {"feature": "window_view"}).

Output

The node outputs an array of JSON objects, each representing a created resource. Each output item contains a resource field with all properties of the newly created resource node from Neo4j, including:

  • resource_id: The generated unique ID of the resource.
  • business_id: The associated business ID.
  • name: The resource's name.
  • capacity: The resource's capacity if provided.
  • properties: The parsed JSON string of additional properties.
  • created_at: Timestamp of when the resource was created.

No binary data is output by this node.

Dependencies

  • Requires a Neo4j database connection configured with host, port, username, password, and optionally database name.
  • Needs an API key credential or authentication token for Neo4j access configured in n8n.
  • Uses the official Neo4j driver library to connect and run Cypher queries.
  • Relies on helper functions for error parsing and query execution bundled with the node.

Troubleshooting

  • Missing or incomplete Neo4j credentials: The node will throw an error if any required connection details (host, port, username, password) are missing. Ensure all fields are correctly filled in the credential configuration.
  • Connection failures: Errors connecting to Neo4j or opening a session may occur due to network issues, incorrect credentials, or database unavailability. Verify connectivity and credentials.
  • Invalid Resource Type ID: If the resource type ID is empty or invalid, the node throws an error. Confirm the resource type exists in the database.
  • Malformed JSON in Properties: The Properties (JSON String) must be valid JSON. Invalid JSON strings can cause query failures.
  • Neo4j session errors: If the session cannot be opened or closed properly, check the Neo4j server status and driver compatibility.
  • Continue On Fail behavior: When enabled, the node continues processing subsequent items even if some fail, returning error details alongside successful results.
