Hi @MBW ,
Could you please help me understand your ask better by sharing details on below asks.
- Did you tried creating dataset in ADF for your data? If yes, what is the format and connector type of that dataset?
- Do you mean you are trying to create a dataset for SQL table and you don't see proper datatype coming up?
between, You can have your mappings dynamic also in copy activity. Please check below video for better idea if that helps.
