+=== Clear data option
+
+In Neo4j 2025.02, the `clearData` option was added to the recreate procedure.
+This option allows you to delete the data (e.g., nodes and relationships) and the schema (e.g., constraints and indexes) for the database.
+This means you end up with an empty store, but as with the other recreate database options, all privileges associated with the database are kept.

+[CAUTION]
+====
+Using the clear data option means the data and schema will be deleted *permanently*.
