Run safe read-only queries

Use GRAPH.RO_QUERY for read-only operations that reject any write attempts.

Usage

Replace GRAPH.QUERY with GRAPH.RO_QUERY for queries that should never modify the graph.

Example

redis-cli GRAPH.RO_QUERY social "MATCH (u:User) RETURN count(u)"

Notes

• GRAPH.RO_QUERY enforces read-only semantics at the API level
• Any attempt to write data (CREATE, SET, DELETE, MERGE) will be rejected
• Useful for ensuring query safety in production environments
• Can help prevent accidental data modifications
• Provides an additional layer of data protection
