This topic describes how to delete a data table from an instance by using Tablestore SDK for Node.js.
Usage notes
If a search index is created for a data table, you must delete the search index before you delete the data table.
If a secondary index is created for a data table, the secondary index is automatically deleted when you delete the data table.
You cannot restore deleted data tables or secondary indexes. Proceed with caution.
Prerequisites
A client is initialized. For more information, see Initialize a Tablestore client.
