Hello,  
Is it possible to do something like this below to generate clickable links taking the user to my NEO4J web browser instance with a cypher code to be plugged in directly?

\<a href='[http://my.online.neo4j.browser.link/?cypher=CodeForCypher...variable...EndCode](http://my.online.neo4j.browser.link/?cypher=CodeForCypher...variable...EndCode) \< /a\>

I show the imaginary html link way of doing it above as an example how I would like it to work. Is there any way to program something that would take text from somewhere and plug it into the browser directly? I know my alternative is generating a Cypher code file and asking the user to download it and plug it into the browser; just checking if there is a more convenient way for the user.

Thanks!

Hi.  
As far as I know: Neo4J Browser is for development purposes. What you want is not supported by it.

Most likely you'll want to build a visualization layer on top of your DB.  
Skim [this article](https://neo4j.com/developer-blog/15-tools-for-visualizing-your-neo4j-graph-database/).  
Maybe [NeoDash](https://github.com/nielsdejong/neodash) is right for you.  
There are javascript libraries also.

[Browser URL parameters - Neo4j Browser](https://neo4j.com/docs/browser-manual/current/operations/browser-url-parameters/) describes parameters you can pass on command line but do not see where we can pass a cypher statement
