### <kbd>function</kbd> `plot_table`

```python theme={null}
plot_table(
    vega_spec_name: 'str',
    data_table: 'wandb.Table',
    fields: 'dict[str, Any]',
    string_fields: 'dict[str, Any] | None' = None,
    split_table: 'bool' = False
) → CustomChart
```

Creates a custom charts using a Vega-Lite specification and a `wandb.Table`.

This function creates a custom chart based on a Vega-Lite specification and a data table represented by a `wandb.Table` object. The specification needs to be predefined and stored in the W\&B backend. The function returns a custom chart object that can be logged to W\&B using `wandb.Run.log()`.

**Args:**

* `vega_spec_name`:  The name or identifier of the Vega-Lite spec  that defines the visualization structure.
* `data_table`:  A `wandb.Table` object containing the data to be  visualized.
* `fields`:  A mapping between the fields in the Vega-Lite spec and the  corresponding columns in the data table to be visualized.
* `string_fields`:  A dictionary for providing values for any string constants  required by the custom visualization.
* `split_table`:  Whether the table should be split into a separate section  in the W\&B UI. If `True`, the table will be displayed in a section named  "Custom Chart Tables". Default is `False`.

**Returns:**

* `CustomChart`:  A custom chart object that can be logged to W\&B. To log the  chart, pass the chart object as argument to `wandb.Run.log()`.

**Raises:**

* `wandb.Error`:  If `data_table` is not a `wandb.Table` object.

**Example:**

```python theme={null}
# Create a custom chart using a Vega-Lite spec and the data table.
import wandb

data = [[1, 1], [2, 2], [3, 3], [4, 4], [5, 5]]
table = wandb.Table(data=data, columns=["x", "y"])
fields = {"x": "x", "y": "y", "title": "MY TITLE"}

with wandb.init() as run:
   # Training code goes here

   # Create a custom title with `string_fields`.
   my_custom_chart = wandb.plot_table(
        vega_spec_name="wandb/line/v0",
        data_table=table,
        fields=fields,
        string_fields={"title": "Title"},
   )

   run.log({"custom_chart": my_custom_chart})
```
