How can I delete only some of the node properties using Cypher?

Question

I have a node that has a lot of properties. I no longer need many of them. How can I delete the ones that I no longer need?

Answer 1

The REMOVE clause can be used to remove labels and properties both from nodes and relationships. Here is a simple query that does that:

MATCH (n:WrongLabel) REMOVE n:WrongLabel, n.property;
