We can define the variable and use them in actual query.
Example 1
MATCH (p1:Person)
MATCH(p1) RETURN p1.name
In the above snippet, I defined the variable p1 and reuse them.
Example 2
MATCH (p1:Person)
MATCH (p2:Person{name:"Rama Krishna"})
MATCH (p1)-[rel:REPORT_TO]->(p2) RETURN p1.name
In the above snippet, I defined the variables p1, p2 and reuse them.
Let’s see it with an example.
Step 1: Open neo4j browser by hitting following url in browser.
http://localhost:7474/browser/
Step 2: Insert data by executing below query.
CREATE (p1:Person{name: "Rama Krishna", age: 32, city: "Bangalore", male: true, designation: "CEO"}),
(p2:Person{name: "Murali", age: 32, city: "Hyderabad", male: true, designation: "Vice President"}),
(p3:Person{name: "Gopi", age: 34, city: "Chennai", male: true, designation: "Vice President"}),
(p4:Person{name: "Kiran", age: 28, city: "Bangalore", male: true, designation: "Director"}),
(p5:Person{name: "Siva", age: 45, city: "Hyderabad", male: true, designation: "Director"}),
(p6:Person{name: "Kiran", age: 36, city: "Hyderabad", male: true, designation: "Manager"}),

(office1:Location{name: "Pluto", city: "Bangalore"}),
(office2:Location{name: "Mars", city: "Chennai"})
MERGE (p2)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2014, description: "reports to"}]->(p1)
MERGE (p3)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2016, description: "reports to"}]->(p1)
MERGE (p4)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 1997, description: "reports to"}]->(p2)
MERGE (p5)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 1997, description: "reports to"}]->(p3)
MERGE (p6)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2001, description: "reports to"}]->(p4)
MERGE (p7)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2009, description: "reports to"}]->(p4)
MERGE (p8)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 1998, description: "reports to"}]->(p5)
MERGE (p9)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2003, description: "reports to"}]->(p6)
MERGE (p10)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2004, description: "reports to"}]->(p6)
MERGE (p11)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2008, description: "reports to"}]->(p7)
MERGE (p12)-[:REPORT_TO{from: 2019, description: "reports to"}]->(p8)
MERGE (p2)-[:FRIEND_TO{from: 2014, description: "friend to"}]->(p1)
MERGE (p10)-[:FRIEND_TO{from: 2014, description: "friend to"}]->(p8)
MERGE (p7)-[:FRIEND_TO{from: 2014, description: "friend to"}]->(p9)
MERGE (p3)-[:RELATIVE_TO{from: 2014, description: "relative to"}]->(p4)
RETURN p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6, p7, p8, p9, p10, p11, p12, office1, office2
Step 3: Execute below query to get all the person names who report to Rama Krishna.

MATCH (p2:Person{name:"Rama Krishna"})
MATCH (p1)-[rel:REPORT_TO]->(p2) RETURN p1.name
