Getting warning about the deprecated id() function when using the @Id annotation.

[subhankardas]

I am using the Neo4jRepository and @node entity with @id and @relationship to another node entity and getting an error saying:
023-05-02 00:59:57.789 WARN 17384 --- [ main] org.springframework.data.neo4j.cypher : Neo.ClientNotification.Statement.FeatureDeprecationWarning: This feature is deprecated and will be removed in future versions. OPTIONAL MATCH (hlp:Customer) WHERE id(hlp) = $__id__ WITH hlp WHERE hlp IS NULL CREATE (customer:Customer) SET customer = $__properties__ RETURN customer UNION MATCH (customer:Customer) WHERE id(customer) = $__id__ SET customer += $__properties__ RETURN customer ^ The query used a deprecated function. ('id' is no longer supported)
I am assuming this is due to the @id annotation which is internally using deprecated function, so is there any planned release for this fix?

The id function for nodes and relationships got deprecated and was replaced with elementId in Neo4j 5. The warning itself just got harsher with Neo4j 5.6 (and should not mention ..no longer supported.. in one of the next minor releases). There is nothing to worry about right now. It's just the message not any misbehaving functionality in Spring Data Neo4j.
We are internally working on making use of elementId already but couldn't do it for Spring Data Neo4j 7 back in the days because Neo4j 5 got released later and the feature was not stable.
If you want to keep the warnings for Cypher enabled but mute those messages, here is a solution to do this: #2660 (comment)
If you have any further questions regarding this topic, please reopen this issue.

import org.neo4j.cypherdsl.core.renderer.Configuration;
import org.neo4j.cypherdsl.core.renderer.Dialect;
...
    @Bean
    Configuration cypherDslConfiguration() {
        return Configuration.newConfig().withDialect(Dialect.NEO4J_5).build();
    }

helped to eliminate the warning. From here.
