| = Scenes and sharing data | ||
| :description: This section describes Scenes and how to export data from Explore in the Neo4j Aura console | ||
|
|
||
| When you are working with a dataset, sometimes you may need more than one Scene to achieve your objective. | ||
| By using the *Scene* button, you can expand the Scene panel from which you can add a new Scene, or rename, duplicate, or delete your existing Scene(s). | ||
| The Scene panel is also where you switch between your Scenes, including any Scenes shared with you. | ||
| If you have multiple Scenes saved, the search box allows you to filter through them. | ||
|
|
||
| The number of available Scenes is determined by the tier of the connected instance. | ||
| For Aura Free, you can have *three* Scenes per user, Aura Professional can have *five* Scenes per user, and Aura Business Critical as well as Virtual Dedicated Cloud can have *unlimited* Scenes. | ||
|

|
|
||
| Whenever you make any changes to a Scene, i.e. any changes to filters, the graph, the visualization, or the style, the Scene is automatically saved. | ||
| If you switch Scene, the Scene you left is the same when you return to it. | ||
|
|
||
| Style settings for a Scene is determined by the Perspective by default. | ||
| If you change the styling, the changes only affect the current Scene and any new Scenes you create follow the Perspective styling. | ||
|

|
|
||
| [WARNING] | ||
| ==== | ||
| Scenes rely on node and relationship IDs in Neo4j. | ||
| Changes to this underlying data can cause data in saved Scenes to appear incorrectly if IDs are reused by the database. | ||
| This also applies when you pause and then restore an instance. | ||
| ==== | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| == Sharing options | ||
|
|
||
| Explore allows you to share your insights. | ||
| When you find an interesting Scene, you have different options to share it, depending on who you want to share it with. | ||
| The options are accessed with the *Export* button in the top right corner of your Scene. | ||
|
|
||
| [.shadow] | ||
| image::share-options.jpg[width=400] | ||
|
|
||
| === CSV files | ||
|
|
||
| The first option is to extract your results as CSV files. | ||
| First you select what data in the Scene to capture. | ||
| By default *everything* is selected, but you can refine as you like by enable/disable node labels, relationship types, and/or properties on both nodes and relationships. | ||
|
|
||
| When you have done so, you need to decide in what form to export. | ||
| You can export *all* the data in your Scene in one single CSV file, `graph-export.csv`, by leaving that box checked. | ||
| This file contains *all* the data for every relationship, i.e. start node info, end node info, as well as relationship info. | ||
| Additionally, you can add separate CSV files for nodes (`node-export.csv`) and relationships (`relationship-export.csv`), respectively, by leaving those boxes checked as well. | ||
|
|
||
| [.shadow] | ||
| image::export-options.jpg[width=600] | ||
|
|
||
| [NOTE] | ||
| ==== | ||
| If the Scene only contains nodes and no relationships, both the `graph-export.csv` and `relationship-export.csv` options are disabled. | ||
| ==== | ||
|
|
||
| Exporting data in a Scene as CSV files allows you to use your results in other applications. | ||
|
|
||
| === Screenshot | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to share your Scene with someone without access to the database, you can take a screenshot to export. | ||
| This lets you to share your insights *without allowing outside interaction* with the elements in your Scene. | ||
|
|
||
| The screenshot can be saved as either a .png file or .svg file, select the option suitable for your use case. | ||
| Regardless of file format, he screenshot is captured and saved to your _Downloads_ folder. | ||
