GQL reserved words reference

[!INCLUDE feature-preview]

This article provides a comprehensive reference of GQL (Graph Query Language) reserved words for graph in Microsoft Fabric. Reserved words are keywords that have special meaning in GQL and can't be used as identifiers, such as names for variables or properties.

The alphabetical list includes both standard GQL reserved words and reserved words specific to graph.

Note

Items marked "graph only" are reserved for potential Microsoft-specific extensions to GQL. Items marked "GQL standard prereserved" are reserved for future use in the GQL standard.

Use this reference to avoid conflicts when naming objects in your GQL queries and scripts.
