# Get Table Meta

The meta data of a single table or multiple tables can be obtained in several ways.

### Get a single table meta by tableID

A table's meta data is fetched by referring the table Id, using the method `getTable()` as given below,

#### Sample Code Snippet 

**Package Imports**

```java
import com.zc.component.object.ZCObject; 
import com.zc.component.object.ZCTable; 
```

```java
//Create a base Object Instance 
ZCObject object = ZCObject.getInstance(); 
//Get a Table Instance referring the table ID on base object 
ZCTable tableMeta = object.getTable(1510000000110121L);

```

### Get a single table meta by table name

On the other hand, you can refer the table name also to fetch the meta data details of a table where table name is
passed as an argument to the `getTable()` method.

#### Sample Code Snippet 

**Package Imports**

```java
import com.zc.component.object.ZCObject; 
import com.zc.component.object.ZCTable;
```

```java
//Create a base Object Instance 
ZCObject object = ZCObject.getInstance(); 
//Get a Table Instance referring the table ID on base object 
ZCTable tableMeta = object.getTable("SampleTable");

```

### Get all the tables

In addition to getting the meta data of a single table, you can fetch the details of all the tables in a catalyst
project using `getAllTables()` method.

#### Sample Code Snippet 

**Package Imports**

```java
import com.zc.component.object.ZCObject; 
```

```java
//Create a base Object Instance
ZCObject object = ZCObject.getInstance(); 
//Get all the Tables in a given Project 
List<ZCTable> tableList =object.getAllTables();

```
