Filtering

Knowledge Graph supports filters for:

• Identifiers and names

• Types and classes

• Properties and components

• Relationships and data sources

• Security tags and active time ranges

Refer to the following topics, depending on the data or direction of your filtering.

• Entity filtering (entities and their properties, components, or outgoing relationships)

• Entity inbound filtering (relationships that point to an entity)

• Event filtering (events and event relationships)

Recommended approach

1. Start with the smallest filter that identifies the intended data.

2. Add one condition at a time and validate the result.

3. Request only the fields required by the application.

4. Add deterministic sorting and pagination for repeatable result traversal.

5. Use variables rather than constructing query text from user input.
