1. a set of users 2. a set of actions 3. timestamped events of directing users to actions
How can I model the graph such that I can find patterns with time-ordering? For example, find/count all the users that did action A after action B, or find the most popular ordered path between action A and action E.

Where you have users performing actions, where you insert a middle node for
each action which points to the action as well as the next action in line.
The user node has a relationship to the last middle node where new actions
gets appended. Such a middle node could have a time stamp also.

There used to be a good time series graph doc somewhere too yes?

Yep a secondary graph structure of a linked list is usually what you use for
this.
