Hello, I am working on Neo4j, and I imported my ontology, but I didn't understand how Neo4j import the class owl:NamedIndividual or the other class other than owl:Class, because it gives me just one node label which is Resource, there aren't any way to import this owl:NamedIndividual as a separate Node with different label ? this is a part of my ontology ```auto ``` and this what Neo4j gives me ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex021/uploads/neo4jcommunity/original/3X/c/1/c12aa94bdc1078cad52fdc1d8873893cbe665bbb.png) ---

Hi @siham.elfedali , I assume you're using the `n10s.onto.import.*` procedure. Correct? If that's the case, this method does not import NamedIndividuals as described [in the manual](https://neo4j.com/labs/neosemantics/4.0/importing-ontologies/). If your ontology includes named individuals in a single file you'll have to use a combination of `n10s.onto.import.*` and `n10s.rdf.import.*`. You can find how to do it with the guide to import the FIBO ontology. You can play it by running the in your browser: ```auto :play rdf/fibo.html ``` If the named individuals can be split into a separate file then the process can be simplified. You'll probably see what I man when you play the guide. Hope this helps, JB. ---

Hi @jesus_barrasa, yes I am using the **n10s.onto.import.** \* procedure to import my ontology, As you suggested I tried to run the FIBO ontology example, but I got an error that the function \*\*n10s.rdf.collect \*\* is Unknown function. What is the mistake that I did here ? PS: I am using the version 4.2 of neo4j ---

You need Neosemantics 4.3.0.2 Can you upgrade? If not it would be a bit trickier. Let me know and if not I'll provide instructions on how to do it. But essentially it would involve splitting your ontology into two parts: the schema elements in one part and the named instances in the other. JB ---

Hi @jesus_barrasa, now the function **n10s.rdf.collect** is working I am using the neo4j 4.3.4 and Neosemantics 4.3.0.2. As I understand, in this way I will get duplication of node, because I will have the nodes that were imported using **n10s.onto.import** and the nodes imported using **n10s.rdf.import** ---

Where can i find info on "the schema elements in one part and the named instances in the other". I think, this will help to put good visualization. Do i need to add additional prefix. regards, PD
