Azure Synapse: Truncate and Load feeds

Just starting to explore Azure Synapse as a replacement/upgrade for our on-premise SQL Server/SSIS/SSAS based solution.

Majority of our feeds follow a truncate and load approach. Was hoping in Synapse (ADF) it would be something as simple as enabling a checkbox to truncate and load data into a table but I've been unable to find even a round about way to achieve that.

What's the best practice to do a truncate and load in Synapse/ADF?

    I have the same settings but when I run this on an allready populated table it only truncates the data, but it does not insert anything..
