"|" causes syntax error

[dberardo-com]

i am trying to use the pipe operator similarly to: https://neo4j.com/docs/cypher-manual/current/clauses/match/#match-on-multiple-rel-types

MATCH (wallstreet {title: 'Wall Street'})<-[:ACTED_IN|DIRECTED]-(person)
RETURN person.name

but it gives me syntax error.

is this operation supported? and if not:

• what are alternatives?

if so:

• is it supported for traversal as well, i.e. [:ACTED_IN*|DIRECTED*]

and more in general: the documentation does not make reference to the cypher specification the AGE adheres to. i am going through neo4j doc in order to figure that out, but i am not sure why there is no real doc about it on the AGE official website.

Hey, this is a duplicate of #1714 , there's a workaround there but no resolution.
More broadly AGE should support OpenCypher, which does have some differences from Neo4J's Cypher implementation.
