** strings can be a URI pointing to a file/directory or an XML string (which is detected by the leading <code><</code> character)
** a path must be specified if the input is not a file or directory reference
* The parsing and indexing behavior can be controlled via {{Code|$options}} argument can be used to change the indexing behavior:** the allowed options are {{Option|ADDCACHE}} and the [[Options#Indexing|indexing]], [[Options#Full-TextIndexing|full-textindexing]], [[Options#Parsing|parsing]] and [[Options#XML Parsing|XML parsing]] options, all in lower case.** parsing options are will only applied to impact string input (URIs, XML strings or file/directory references) specified via this command. If you plan to add data in a subsequent step, you need to specify your options along with these commandsbecause nodes have already been parsed.
* An existing database will be overwritten.
* Database creation takes place after most other update operations (see [[XQuery Update#Pending Update List|Pending Update List]]). As a consequence, a newly created database cannot be addressed in the same query.
