I have a newbie problem with the syntax. I've just started learning AQL. The documentation is good but I keep making a syntax error that I can´t explain.

I tried doing exactly the same as the documentation says; I copied the same thing with the same collection as the example and that worked, but when I try writing the same thing, the syntax checker in the web interface blocks me.

Maybe I'm writing something more that I can´t see like a format code in the word? (I didn´t copy anything from a text processor). I'm using Firefox and Windows 10

(This is almost the first page of the newbie manual)

INSERT {
    "name": "Ned",
    "surname": "Stark",
    "alive"; true,
    "age": 41,
    "traits": ["A","H","C","N","P"]
} INTO Characters

You have a semi-colon (;) between "alive" and true.

This should be a colon (:).

You have:

"alive"; true,

You should have:

"alive": true,

The syntax error is helpful, it reports:

  • unexpected
  • near '; true,
  • at position 4:12 (this corresponds to line|row #4 and column #12 and your ;)
