How to delete a range of table rows in a Word DOCX document in Java

Deleting rows from a DOCX table should be a snap, right? Well, if you are following anyone else’s tutorial, this might not actually be the case. Luckily, you came to the right place, and you’ll be done with this in just a matter of minutes!

To begin with, we will use Jitpack to dynamically compile our API library. This means inserting two snippets into our Maven POM file:

Repository

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>jitpack.io</id>
        <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

Dependency

<dependencies>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.Cloudmersive</groupId>
    <artifactId>Cloudmersive.APIClient.Java</artifactId>
    <version>v3.34</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

With our library ready, we can invoke editDocumentDocxDeleteTableRowRange using this sample code below:

// Import classes:
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.ApiClient;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.ApiException;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.Configuration;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.invoker.auth.*;
//import com.cloudmersive.client.EditDocumentApi;
ApiClient defaultClient = Configuration.getDefaultApiClient();
// Configure API key authorization: Apikey
ApiKeyAuth Apikey = (ApiKeyAuth) defaultClient.getAuthentication("Apikey");
Apikey.setApiKey("YOUR API KEY");
// Uncomment the following line to set a prefix for the API key, e.g. "Token" (defaults to null)
//Apikey.setApiKeyPrefix("Token");
EditDocumentApi apiInstance = new EditDocumentApi();
DeleteDocxTableRowRangeRequest reqConfig = new DeleteDocxTableRowRangeRequest(); // DeleteDocxTableRowRangeRequest | Document input request
try {
DeleteDocxTableRowRangeResponse result = apiInstance.editDocumentDocxDeleteTableRowRange(reqConfig);
System.out.println(result);
} catch (ApiException e) {
System.err.println("Exception when calling EditDocumentApi#editDocumentDocxDeleteTableRowRange");
e.printStackTrace();
}
