How toSkip Null Property When Creating Vertex in NeptuneDB(Gremlin)

In NeptuneDB, I wanna check if one specific vertex exist or not, if not, create it and add some properties. Here is my implementation in Gremlin Python:

g.V().hasLabel('Event').has(T.id, idNum).fold().coalesce(unfold(), addV('Event').property(T.id, idNum)). property(Cardinality.single, 'semState', event['semState']).property(Cardinality.single, 'System', systemname).next()

but sometime the 'System' property can be null, in this case, error was thrown. So I was wondering if there is a way to check if 'System' is null in the query above, if null, skip it.

Gremlin doesn't like null values, so the solution should be on the client side, by splitting the query:

query = g.V().hasLabel('Event').has(T.id, idNum).fold().coalesce(unfold(), addV('Event').property(T.id, idNum)). property(Cardinality.single, 'semState', event['semState'])
if systemname is not None:
    query = query.property(Cardinality.single, 'System', systemname)
query.next()
