CRUD Mutators (Deprecated)

# CRUD Mutators (Deprecated) > 💀 **This API is deprecated**: It will be removed in a future release of Zero. Please move to the new [mutator](https://zero.rocicorp.dev/docs/mutators) API. ## Overview Zero generates basic CRUD mutators for every table you sync. To enable, set the `enableLegacyMutators` option to `true` in your schema: ```ts const schema = createSchema({ // ... enableLegacyMutators: true }) ``` Once enabled, mutators are available at `z.mutate.<tablename>`: ```tsx const zero = new Zero(...); zero.mutate.user.insert({ id: nanoid(), username: 'abby', language: 'en-us', }); ``` See [Writing Data with Mutators](https://zero.rocicorp.dev/docs/mutators#writing-data) for more information. `z.mutate` contains the same methods as `tx.mutate` but is available on the `Zero` instance instead of the `Transaction` instance.

Overview

Zero generates basic CRUD mutators for every table you sync. To enable, set the enableLegacyMutators option to true in your schema:

Copyconst schema = createSchema({
  // ...
  enableLegacyMutators: true
})

Once enabled, mutators are available at z.mutate.<tablename>:

Copyconst zero = new Zero(...);
zero.mutate.user.insert({
	id: nanoid(),
	username: 'abby',
	language: 'en-us',
});

See Writing Data with Mutators for more information. z.mutate contains the same methods as tx.mutate but is available on the Zero instance instead of the Transaction instance.
