Delete property keys from Neo4j 3.0

Question

I'm looking how to remove property keys from Neo4j 3.0. I tried :

MATCH (n)
DETACH DELETE n

But it doesn't delete property keys. I tried to remove data folder from my graphdb and restart the server but still have the same thing. Thank you

You can't really remove the properties from the left pane of the neo4j browser (see Neo4j - How to delete unused property keys from browser?).

To remove a property from nodes do:

MATCH (n:Node)
REMOVE n.my_key

Your query will delete the node itself.
