I need a full grid refresh, but setRowData is not a function

My sources say, after major data changes, particularly if the self-generated row Id (my own getRowId) change, I need to rebuild the grid (gridOptions.rowData), and then use gridOptions.api.setRowData().
However, trying to do that, the only what I get if a "setRowdata is not a function" message, and that was it.
My searches in the recent Ag Grid source show only some references of this method in various interfaces, but not even an implementation.
How to do a full grid re-display?

Currently, we have Ag Grid 35 and setRowData() was deprecated around at 31. This deprecation is cloudy in the documentation, can not be find easily by googling and LLMs do not seem knowing too much about them.
We had an incompatible API change below the radar.
The method currently to use, is:
gridOptions.api.setGridOption('rowData', your_row_data)
Also many other set... method were all unified under setGridOption('...'). Like setStyle or similars.
