Delta Lake APIs

For most read and write operations on Delta tables, you can use Apache Spark reader and writer APIs. For examples, see Table batch reads and writes and Table streaming reads and writes.

However, there are some operations that are specific to Delta Lake and you must use Delta Lake APIs. For examples, see Table utility commands.

Note

Some Delta Lake APIs are still evolving and are indicated with the Evolving qualifier in the API docs.
