GraphStudio

Our GraphStudio UI lets beginners and pros alike set up and perform analytics with a TigerGraph database, all from a graphical user interface. The only code you'll need to write is for queries themselves; everything else is managed graphically.

• Schema Designer - Describe your graph data model.

• Loading Builder - Select your input files, then drag-and-drop to link input data to vertex and edge fields.

• Graph Explorer - display and explore your graph data, in an intuitive and visual way.

• Query Editor - view, edit, and run queries. Display the results graphically.

Note: GraphStudio is included in your Developer Edition but is licensed separately.
