🚀 Import from PostgreSQL

We’re pleased to announce the availability of our first new data source in the Console Preview. If you’re not already familiar with the Console Preview, head over to https://console-preview.neo4j.io.

With this release, you’ll see a new way of accessing import options under Data Services > Import. You’ll now find a new, more comprehensive set of data sources, the first becoming available being PostgreSQL, with more to follow soon. The existing CSV import option remains available.

Note: Your source database will need to be accessible over a public IP address to configure the data source.

Once successfully connected, you’ll be guided through steps to create a graph model and mapping ready for import. Whenever possible, constraints in your source database will be used to create a configuration automatically.

The graph models and mapping are saved for reuse under the Graph Models tab.

In contrast to the CSV import flow which streams files from your client machine, the import jobs for new data sources now run in Aura infrastructure. You can see the status of Import jobs in the corresponding tab and long-running import jobs continue running after you log out of the console.

Once you’re ready to see the results of your load, head over to Explore or Query to start interacting with your new graph.
