Apostrophe in a string property value












0















MATCH (O:Person) WHERE O.name = 'Nancy's Outbreak' RETURN O;


The apostrophe in "Nancy's" is breaking the statement. is there a way around it?

          The simple way in this use-case is to use the double-quote around your string, like this : "Nancy's Outbreak"



          Otherwise you have to escape it with a backslash : 'Nancy's Outbreak'.



          Last information, if you use query paramters, Neo4j will do it for you.
