DELETE Statements
To delete information from a table, use DELETE statements.
DELETE Syntax
The DELETE statement requires the table name in the FROM clause and the row's primary key in the WHERE clause, as shown in the following example:
<delete_statement> ::= DELETE FROM <table_name> WHERE { Id = <expression> } [ { AND | OR } ... ]
<expression> ::=
| @ <parameter>
| ?
| <literal>
You can use the ExecuteNonQuery method to execute data manipulation commands and retrieve the number of affected rows, as shown in the following example:
C#
String connectionString = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;"; using (AirtableConnection connection = new AirtableConnection(connectionString)) { int rowsAffected; AirtableCommand cmd = new AirtableCommand("DELETE FROM SampleTable_1 WHERE Id = @myId", connection); cmd.Parameters.Add(new AirtableParameter("myId","6")); rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;" Using connection As New AirtableConnection(connectionString) Dim rowsAffected As Integer Dim cmd As New AirtableCommand("DELETE FROM SampleTable_1 WHERE Id = @myId", connection) cmd.Parameters.Add(New AirtableParameter("myId", "6")) rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End Using
