pub async fn [show\_tables\_by\_type](https://docs.kinetica.com/content/api/rust/gpudb/struct.Kinetica/show-tables-by-type.md#method.show_tables_by_type)( \&self, type\_id: [String](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.98.1/alloc/string/struct.String.html), label: [String](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.98.1/alloc/string/struct.String.html), ) -> [Result](https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.98.1/core/result/enum.Result.html)\<[ShowTablesByTypeResponse](https://docs.kinetica.com/content/api/rust/generated/api/struct.ShowTablesByTypeResponse.md), [KineticaError](https://docs.kinetica.com/content/api/rust/errors/enum.KineticaError.md)>

Show table names of specified typeGets names of the tables whose type matches the given criteria. Each table has a particular type. This type comprises the schema and properties of the table and sometimes a type label. This function allows a look up of the existing tables based on full or partial type information. The operation is synchronous.

##### Arguments

<ul>
  <li>`type_id` - Type id returned by a call to `/create/type`.</li>
  <li>`label` - Optional user supplied label which can be used instead of the type\_id to retrieve all tables with the given label.</li>
</ul>
