# Replication Settings

The **Replication Settings** tab displays the settings for your job, and enables you to edit the source and target mappings for your objects:

## Replication Settings

View the settings applied to your replication job:

<table><thead><tr><th width="334">Name</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Target</td><td>The name of the connection where the data will be replicated to.</td></tr><tr><td>Replication Mode</td><td>Specifies how changes in the source should be handled in the target, e.g. <strong>Exact replication</strong>, <strong>Soft deletion</strong>, or <strong>Append only</strong>.</td></tr><tr><td>Target Update Interval</td><td>The frequency at which the target is updated.</td></tr><tr><td>Upsolver Ingestion Time Column Name</td><td>The name of the column Upsolver uses to write the ingestion time.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Source Schema

The **Source Schema** displays the schemas, tables, and columns in your source database. Expand the list items in the tree to view each object. Click the **Edit** icon to make changes to the current replication selection in the job. As you select or deselect an object in the list, the SQL code appears in the **SQL Statement** box.&#x20;

To manually edit and run the SQL, click **Edit in Worksheet** or **Copy SQL**. When you have made your changes, click the **Save & Run** button. Alternatively, click **Cancel** to exit without saving changes.&#x20;

## Target Schema

When you create or edit the schema, the mappings of source to target are displayed:

| Source Schema                                       | Target Schema                                                   | Target Table Prefix                                                |
| --------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| The name of the schema within your source database. | The name of the target schema as the destination for your data. | The optional prefix to add to the target table in the destination. |

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://upsolver.gitbook.io/content/reference-1/monitoring/job-status/cdc-sources/replication-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
