# Interface: Table<T\>
A LanceDB Table is the collection of Records. Each Record has one or more vector fields.
## Type parameters
| Name | Type |
| :------ | :------ |
| `T` | `number`[] |
## Implemented by
- [`LocalTable`](../classes/LocalTable.md)
## Table of contents
### Properties
- [add](Table.md#add)
- [countRows](Table.md#countrows)
- [createIndex](Table.md#createindex)
- [delete](Table.md#delete)
- [name](Table.md#name)
- [overwrite](Table.md#overwrite)
- [search](Table.md#search)
## Properties
### add
**add**: (`data`: `Record`<`string`, `unknown`\>[]) => `Promise`<`number`\>
#### Type declaration
▸ (`data`): `Promise`<`number`\>
Insert records into this Table.
##### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `data` | `Record`<`string`, `unknown`\>[] | Records to be inserted into the Table |
##### Returns
`Promise`<`number`\>
The number of rows added to the table
#### Defined in
[index.ts:120](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/blob/b1eeb90/node/src/index.ts#L120)
___
### countRows
**countRows**: () => `Promise`<`number`\>
#### Type declaration
▸ (): `Promise`<`number`\>
Returns the number of rows in this table.
##### Returns
`Promise`<`number`\>
#### Defined in
[index.ts:140](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/blob/b1eeb90/node/src/index.ts#L140)
___
### createIndex
**createIndex**: (`indexParams`: [`IvfPQIndexConfig`](IvfPQIndexConfig.md)) => `Promise`<`any`\>
#### Type declaration
▸ (`indexParams`): `Promise`<`any`\>
Create an ANN index on this Table vector index.
**`See`**
VectorIndexParams.
##### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `indexParams` | [`IvfPQIndexConfig`](IvfPQIndexConfig.md) | The parameters of this Index, |
##### Returns
`Promise`<`any`\>
#### Defined in
[index.ts:135](https://github.com/lancedb/lancedb/blob/b1eeb90/node/src/index.ts#L135)
___
### delete
**delete**: (`filter`: `string`) => `Promise`<`void`\>
#### Type declaration
▸ (`filter`): `Promise`<`void`\>
Delete rows from this table.
This can be used to delete a single row, many rows, all rows, or
sometimes no rows (if your predicate matches nothing).
**`Examples`**
```ts
const con = await lancedb.connect("./.lancedb")
const data = [
{id: 1, vector: [1, 2]},
{id: 2, vector: [3, 4]},
{id: 3, vector: [5, 6]},
];
const tbl = await con.createTable("my_table", data)
await tbl.delete("id = 2")
await tbl.countRows() // Returns 2
```
If you have a list of values to delete, you can combine them into a
stringified list and use the `IN` operator:
```ts
const to_remove = [1, 5];
await tbl.delete(`id IN (${to_remove.join(",")})`)
await tbl.countRows() // Returns 1
```
##### Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |
| :------ | :------ | :------ |
| `filter` | `string` | A filter in the same format used by a sql WHERE clause. The filter must not be empty. |
##### Returns
