Giving a row a custom Id

I get new data over websockets and i can add these data with:
var t = $('#example').DataTable();
t.row.add( [id, name,dataset] ).draw( false );
but i also receive the id of the data that needs to be removed from the table. How can i give the row an ID so that i can remove it later on. I only found the way to click on it.. but i don't want any user interaction.

You can use
rowIdto designate the column containing the ID. Then userow()to get the row containing the desired ID usingrow-selectoras shown here.Here is an example:

Thanks for your answer! That is apparently a way to do it. However out of curiosity, how would it work when the id is not a column itself?
