Why does a query work in the console but not from REST API??

[betseyb]

I am able to perform the following query successfully in the web console:

start r =  relationship(12) set r.StartDate = 32677200000, r.EndDate = 1350964800000,  r.ModifiedBy = "betseyb", r.LastModified = 1351025496374 return r

However, when I try to use the REST interface with the following entity:

{

"query": "start r =  relationship({id}) set r.StartDate = {start}, r.EndDate = {end}, r.ModifiedBy = {user}, r.LastModified = {date} return r",

"params": {

"id": 12,

"start": 32677200000,

"end": 1350964800000,

"user": "betseyb",

"date": 1351025985441

}

}

I get a 'bad request' error.  I"m using the same code to send the request that I use for all kinds of other queries.  I"m stumped.

If you look at the returned error message, it complains about using a reserved word ("start") as parameter name:

quote it with backticks, like

"query": "start r =  relationship({id}) set r.StartDate = {`start`}, r.EndDate = {end}, r.ModifiedBy = {user}, r.LastModified = {date} return r",
