+## Azure Synapse Analytics as Target
+When using Azure Synapse Analytics as target, the **Staging Settings** is available on the main table canvas. Enabling staging is mandatory when selecting Azure Synapse Analytics as the target. This significantly enhances write performance by utilizing performant bulk loading capability such as COPY INTO command. **Staging Settings** can be configured in two ways: utilizing **Factory settings** or opting for a **Custom settings**. **Factory settings** apply at the factory level. For the first time, if these settings aren't configured, you'll be directed to the global staging setting section for configuration. Once set, all CDC top-level resources will adopt this configuration. **Custom settings** is scoped only for the CDC resource for which it is configured and overrides the **Factory settings**.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> As we utilize the COPY INTO command to transfer data from the staging location to Azure Synapse Analytics, it is advisable to ensure that all required permissions are pre-configured within Azure Synapse Analytics.

 > [!NOTE]
 > We always use the last published configuration when starting a CDC. For running CDCs, while your data is being processed, you will be billed 4 v-cores of General Purpose Data Flows.
