Is there any way to upload multiple JSON files in neo4j.  
I have 700+ files on my local and want to upload them at once.  
Kindly let me know if is there any way to do it.

If you turn it into CSV the faster method for large amounts of data upload is [Neo4j-admin import - Operations Manual](https://neo4j.com/docs/operations-manual/current/tutorial/import-tool/).

If the files are small and don't contain 10's/100's of millions of records, you could just set up an APOC procedure depending on the graph model and data present in the files.
