# Add Rows

New rows can be added to a DataTable using the `row.add()`API method. Simply call the API function with the data for the new row (be it an array or object).

Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5

Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 | Column 4 | Column 5

# Form Inputs

In order to perform paging, ordering, searching etc, DataTables can remove rows and cells from the document (i.e. those rows / cells which are not needed are not inserted into the document).
