# Getting Started

The how-to guides linked on this page illustrate how to integrate Azure Synapse Analytics with Immuta.

**Requirement**: A running Dedicated SQL pool

## Configure your Azure Synapse Analytics integration

These guides provide information on the recommended feature to enable with Azure Synapse Analytics.

1. [Configure your Azure Synapse Analytics integration](/2024.3/integrations/azure-synapse-analytics/configure-azure-synapse-analytics-integration.md).
2. Select **None** as your [default subscription policy](/2024.3/application-settings/how-to-guides/config-builder-guide.md#manage-the-default-subscription-policy).
3. [Integrate an IAM with Immuta](/2024.3/people/getting-started.md).
4. [Map external user IDs from Azure Synapse Analytics to Immuta](/2024.3/people/immuta-users/how-to-guides/external-user-mapping.md).

## Register metadata

These guides provide instructions for organizing your Azure Synapse Analytics data to align with your governance structure.

1. [Register Azure Synapse Analytics data in Immuta as data sources](/2024.3/data-and-integrations/registering-metadata/register-data-sources/query-backed-tutorial.md).
2. [Recommended: Organize your data sources into domains and assign domain permissions to accountable teams.](/2024.3/data-and-integrations/domains/configure-domains.md)

## [Secure your data](/2024.3/secure-your-data/secure-introduction.md)

These guides provide instructions for configuring and securing your data with governance policies, or see the [Secure use cases](/2024.3/secure-your-data/getting-started-with-secure.md) for a comprehensive guide on creating policies to fit your organization's use case.

1. [Create a global subscription policy](/2024.3/secure-your-data/authoring-policies-in-secure/section-contents/how-to-guides/subscription-policy-tutorial.md).
2. [Create a global data policy](/2024.3/secure-your-data/authoring-policies-in-secure/data-policies/how-to-guides/data-policy-tutorial.md).
3. Validate the policies. You do not have to validate every policy you create in Immuta; instead, examine a few to validate the behavior you expect to see.
4. Once all Immuta policies are in place, remove or alter old permissions and revoke access to the ungoverned tables.
