Java: get node ID after node creation

[Tomas Teicher]

I am creating new node using createNode() method (called as method of Java EmbeddedGraphDatabase object)

Is it possible to get ID of created node? 

I know I can create my custom property "id" and set it to node. But if possible, I would like to use already existing neo4j node ID. I don't need to set it by myself, just get its value once it is created.

Is it possible using Java?

thanks

Tomas

For your custom id use a node property and index it, best to go with the unique factory to ensure that you only have one instance of that id in the graph.
