I am using Neo4j 4.0.3 with Neo4j Desktop Neo4j 1.2.7. I am getting this same error while using ORM/OGMs like neomodel or py2neo
py2neo.database.ClientError: SyntaxError: The old parameter syntax {param} is no longer supported. Please use $param instead (line 1, column 45 (offset: 44))
"MATCH (_:CommConfig) WHERE _.BaseConfigId = {1} RETURN _"
