Configuring Authentication

By default, the Simba Neo4j JDBC Driver requires a user name and password when connecting to a Neo4j data store. You can also configure the connector to connect to the data store without requiring authentication.

You provide this information to the connector in the connection URL. For more information about the syntax of the connection URL, see Building the Connection URL.

To configure authentication:

  1. Set the UID property to an appropriate user name for accessing the Neo4j server.
  2. Set the PWD property to the password corresponding to the user name you provided.

For example:

jdbc:neo4j://archimedes:5480?UID=skroob&PWD=12345

To disable authentication:

  • Set the Auth_Type property to None.

For example:

jdbc:neo4j://archimedes:5480?Auth_Type=None
