GL_MemberOf

Edge Schema

General Information

The traversable GL_MemberOf edge has two distinct uses in the graph:

1. Subgroup hierarchy — A GL_Group subgroup node has a GL_MemberOf edge to its parent GL_Group. This records the group namespace hierarchy and is used to navigate the group tree. Combined with GL_InheritRole, it enables reasoning about inherited access: a user with Owner in myorg has Owner in myorg/frontend by inheritance.

2. Role-to-group binding — Each GL_GroupRole node has a GL_MemberOf edge to its associated GL_Group. This connects the role nodes to their owning group, which is essential for traversal queries that need to identify which users have a given role in a group.
