Setting sessions

GQL provides the SESSION SET statement to modify the session settings.

Setting a GQL schema

In Chapter 2, Key Concepts of GQL, and Chapter 4, GQL Basics, you have already explored the concept of a GQL schema and its operation. Additionally, the current working schema can be set in the session settings.

You can use SESSION SET SCHEMA to specify a GQL schema reference within the session.

For example, to set a session schema, use the following:

GQL:
SESSION SET SCHEMA /root/mySchema
