Go to https://dev.neo4j.com/neo4j-aura to register or log into the service (you might need to verify your email address).
After clicking Create Database
you can create a new Neo4j AuraDB Free instance.
Choose the "Empty Instance" option as we want to import our data ourselves.
On the Credentials popup, make sure to save the password somewhere safe, best is to download the credentials file, which you can also use for your app development.
The default username is always neo4j
.
Then wait 2-3 minutes for your instance to be created.
Afterwards you can connect via the "Open" Button with Workspace (you’ll need the password), which offers the "Import" (Data Importer), "Explore" (Neo4j Bloom) and "Query" (Neo4j Browser) tabs to work with your data.
On the database tile you can also find the connection URL: neo4j+s://xxx.databases.neo4j.io
(it is also contained in your credentials env file).
If you want to see examples for programmatically connecting to the database go to the "Connect" tab of your instance and pick the language of your choice
