Link negated option

The result of conditional nodes in a query can be inverted using the Link Negated property.

For example, if you were performing a query to find all the team members linked to a specific team, using the Link Negated property would allow you to find all the members not linked to a specific team.

Requirements​

  1. The Link Negated property can only be applied to conditional node as it inverts the specified condition.

  2. The Link Negated property only applies to conditional nodes where a path is specified in the condition node.

Example​

As an example use case, the following query uses Link Negated to query all users that are not part of team 5f2be40ca2362a006a837e0a using the path from Users to Team Members to Teams:
