apoc.export.arrow.stream.query
In APOC 2025.06, this procedure was migrated to the unsupported APOC Extended library. This means that if you are using APOC 2025.06 or later, the procedure is not available in Cypher 25 but can still be used with Cypher 5. For more information, see APOC and Cypher versions. |
This procedure is not considered safe to run from multiple threads. It is therefore not supported by the parallel runtime (introduced in Neo4j 5.13). For more information, see the Cypher Manual → Parallel runtime. |

Usage Examples
Let’s suppose we have this data set:
CREATE (f:User {name:'Adam',age:42,male:true,kids:['Sam','Anna','Grace'], born:localdatetime('2015185T19:32:24'), place:point({latitude: 13.1, longitude: 33.46789})})-[:KNOWS {since: 1993, bffSince: duration('P5M1.5D')}]->(b:User {name:'Jim',age:42}),(c:User {name: 'John', age:12}),(d:Another {foo: 'bar'})
With this query:
CALL apoc.export.arrow.stream.query('MATCH (n:User) RETURN count(n) as count, n.name as name')
YIELD value RETURN value
We’ll have a table with the following columns:
-
count
-
name
