No description available [API reference]

Instructions

Neo4j JDBC (full bundle) from Power BI, SQL Server Linked Server via ZappySys Data Gateway, Crystal Reports, SSRS, Azure Data Factory, and other ODBC tools.

  1. This Auth sets enableSQLTranslation=true so you can run SQL such as SELECT * FROM Movie from Power BI.
  2. Create a database user in Neo4j Desktop, Aura console, or CREATE USER. Paste user and password.
  3. After Finish, replace the host (e.g. MyHostName) on the DSN Main UI. Aura always uses TLS (neo4j+s).
  4. Do not use a personal employee login for unattended Linked Server or Power BI refresh.
  5. Finish the wizard. Then click Test Connection on the DSN Main UI (the wizard does not run Test Connection).
  6. Done. You can query from C#, Python, PowerShell, and ODBC apps.
