Neo4j "Sandbox" Error while I import CSV file - neo4j

I have referred to "how to import csv data in neo4j DB". However, all of them refer the standalone DB.
I created a Blank Sandbox on neo4j browser (not standalone) and trying to import from the local Windows machine with the guidelines given in Neo4j documentation as below.
LOAD CSV WITH HEADERS FROM 'file:C:/San/MyGraphData_CSV.csv' as row
RETURN row.columName;
I get Error " Neo.DatabaseError.General.UnknownError: URI is not hierarchical
".
The solutions earlier recommended to replace C:/ with C:/// and other, seems to refer the Standby Neo4j. But i am using online Sandbox and importing.
Please help me resolve as this is POC and I need to evaluate more features and go for the concrete neo4j installation
Regards
San

File URIs should begin with "file:///".
The 3 slashes do not go after the Windows drive letter.

How do I edit neo4j.conf in an AuraDB instance?

I am trying to edit the settings of my AuraDB hosted neo4j instance, specifically, trying to set the following line:
apoc.import.file.enabled=true
I have looked at the official tutorial and many other places, and for the life of me, I am not able to find out where either the "settings" button is located, or how to locate the neo4j.conf or apoc.conf files. It seems that something has possibly changed in a newer version. I have tried both in the browser at https://console.neo4j.io/#databases and in Neo4J Desktop. For the desktop application, I am running it on Ubuntu via the .appimage. I created my database on the website and connected via remote connection following this guide.
Some things that might help me solve the issue:
Is it possible to open a shell in auradb to let me run normal bash commands?
Is the .conf accessible "within" the .appimage?
From the official description of File locations, I am supposedly able to do the following in Neo4j Desktop to find the configuration file:
From the Open dropdown menu of your Neo4j instance, select Terminal,
and navigate to /conf/neo4j.conf.
Yet, when I press the Open dropdown menu, I do not see a Terminal option. What I get is Neo4j Browser, Neo4j Bloom, and Neo4j ETL Tool.
Aura is a managed database - which is to say that you don't get low-level access to configuration of the kind you're describing. The documentation you're looking at relates to self-hosted instances of Neo4j, where you're the one managing and configuring the instance from scratch and where you have that level of access to the underlying configuration.
To the problem you're trying to solve, the following article entitled Loading data into Neo4j Aura is your best bet for the currently available options for loading data into your managed database.
Per the documentation, APOC is installed in Aura databases, but only a limited set of functions and procedures are enabled (as of May 2022). In particular, only a small subset of apoc.import procedures are available - from what I can see, CSV and GraphML support is enabled via apoc.load.csv and apoc.load.graphml, while you also have access to apoc.load.json and apoc.load.xml.
Lists of the currently supported procedures and functions are available at the foot of that document:
Neo4j Aura Supported APOC procedures (updated).json
Neo4j Aura Supported APOC functions (updated).json
From a Neo4j Aura Knowledge Article:
In Aura, we currently do not support changing any property that may
exist in the Neo4j product and defined in neo4j.conf.

How to load yelp dump file in neo4j desktop?

I'm using Neo4j Desktop Version 1.4.3. I've created a new project named "Yelp Project", then uploaded the yelp dump file in it, but I'm not getting the option "Create new DBMS from dump". So I selected Add --> Local DBMS and created a database. But when I open Neo4j Browser, there are no nodes and relationships. I'm not able to figure out how to get this done, can someone help refer image
The feature that you are looking for is not yet available for Neo4j desktop Windows version. See below community thread discussion then scroll at the bottom.

Neo4J Connection issues to local project

I am really sorry to ask a simple question like this, but it is getting frustrating. I installed neo4j 4.0.4 on my Windows machine, created a new project as shown in the official tutorial video and set a password for my local graph. Funnily, the tutorial video ends after setting the password and opening the browser not showing how to perform Cypher queries on this newly created database. In neo4j Desktop my database is shown correctly and it seems to be up and running.
However, when I try to connect to this database via the browser, I do not see the database at all. It is so confusing when connecting to the server to specify a username and password, if you only need to set a password for your database?! The default neo4j user can see the system and default database but not my project database. In addition, I cannot link files from the project directory in Cypher queries. I tried to disable authentication, but it did not help at all.
When I issue SHOW DATABASES command, it does not list my database as well.
Update / Edit:
Seems I misunderstood the concept of projects. Every database is named neo4j - default, regardless of the name specified in the project ?!. However, I still cannot access project files. So far, I copied the files manually in the database directory under "imports". But I guess that is not the intended way.
After importing data to this default database, it still shows no data in the project itself.
Data files in the imports directory are not automatically imported into the DB. That is because neo4j has no idea how you want to store that data as nodes and relationships.
So, it is up to you to determine your desired data model, and then write the appropriate code to enforce that data model.
You can take a look at this page to learn about how to import CSV data (probably the most commonly used import data format).

step by step instructions on loading a csv into neo4j

I am using Neo4j Community edition 2.0.1 and have run into an issue which I cannot seem to resolve. I am trying to load a CSV file but am unable, keeps giving me the message of "type help to see valid commands". I used the same DB file that it says in the database location in the popup to connect, and created an import folder within that folder, and put the csv file there, but it will still not connect. The command I put is the following:
LOAD CSV WITH HEADERS FROM "file:///C:/test.csv" AS line
MERGE (n:MyNode {Name:line.Source})
MERGE (m:MyNode {Name:line.Target})
MERGE (n) -[:TO {dist:line.distance}]-> (m)
But, the error I get is:
Type :help for a list of available commands
Anyone have an idea of what I am doing wrong?
I believe LOAD CSV was only introduced in version 2.1 (you can see where it was added in the 2.1 changelogs), so you won't be able to use this.
Neo4j 2.0.1 was released in 2014, you should seriously consider using/upgrading to a more recent version if possible.

As of Neo4J 3.0, all the configuration files have been streamlined and unified into one file. Which is "neo4j.conf".
You need to change the DB path in this file.
If you are using Linux the file can be found at
/etc/neo4j/neo4j.conf
The actual entry you need to change will be
dbms.directories.data=/var/lib/neo4j/data
If you are using the windows client for Neo4J Community. You should have an option to browse to a database directory before starting the database.

"The new file, config and log structures in Neo4j 3.0 are designed to streamline operations and to bring Neo4j better into line with operational IT expectations. One notable change is to move from multiple config files to a single namespaced files."
