```
A table resides in the third layer of Unity Catalog’s three-level namespace. It contains rows of data. To create a table, users must have CREATE_TABLE and USE_SCHEMA permissions on the schema, and they must have the USE_CATALOG permission on its parent catalog. To query a table, users must have the SELECT permission on the table, and they must have the USE_CATALOG permission on its parent catalog and the USE_SCHEMA permission on its parent schema.
A table can be managed or external. From an API perspective, a __VIEW__ is a particular kind of table (rather than a managed or external table).
This is the high-level interface, that contains generated methods.
Evolving: this interface is under development. Method signatures may change.

```
void delete(DeleteTableRequest deleteTableRequest)
```
    Delete a table.
    Deletes a table from the specified parent catalog and schema. The caller must be the owner of the parent catalog, have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and be the owner of the parent schema, or be the owner of the table and have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
  - get
```
TableInfo get(GetTableRequest getTableRequest)
```
    Get a table.
    Gets a table from the metastore for a specific catalog and schema. The caller must be a metastore admin, be the owner of the table and have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema, or be the owner of the table and have the **SELECT** privilege on it as well.
  - list
```
ListTablesResponse list(ListTablesRequest listTablesRequest)
```
    List tables.
    Gets an array of all tables for the current metastore under the parent catalog and schema. The caller must be a metastore admin or an owner of (or have the **SELECT** privilege on) the table. For the latter case, the caller must also be the owner or have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema. There is no guarantee of a specific ordering of the elements in the array.
  - listSummaries
```
ListTableSummariesResponse listSummaries(ListSummariesRequest listSummariesRequest)
```
    List table summaries.
    Gets an array of summaries for tables for a schema and catalog within the metastore. The table summaries returned are either:
    * summaries for all tables (within the current metastore and parent catalog and schema), when the user is a metastore admin, or: * summaries for all tables and schemas (within the current metastore and parent catalog) for which the user has ownership or the **SELECT** privilege on the table and ownership or **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the schema, provided that the user also has ownership or the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog.
    There is no guarantee of a specific ordering of the elements in the array.
  - update
```
void update(UpdateTableRequest updateTableRequest)
```
    Update a table owner.
    Change the owner of the table. The caller must be the owner of the parent catalog, have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and be the owner of the parent schema, or be the owner of the table and have the **USE_CATALOG** privilege on the parent catalog and the **USE_SCHEMA** privilege on the parent schema.
