You can use Azure Data Studio to connect to and query Synapse SQL in Azure Synapse Analytics.
ConnectTo connect to Synapse SQL, open Azure Data Studio and select New Connection.
Choose Microsoft SQL Server as the Connection type.
The connection requires the following parameters:
<Azure Synapse workspace name>
-ondemand.sql.azuresynapse.netNote
If you would like to use serverless SQL pool the URL should look like:
<Azure Synapse workspace name>
-ondemand.sql.azuresynapse.net.If you would like to use dedicated SQL pool the URL should look like:
<Azure Synapse workspace name>
.sql.azuresynapse.netChoose Windows Authentication, Microsoft Entra ID, or SQL Login as the Authentication Type.
To use SQL Login as the authentication type, add the username/password parameters:

After successful login, you should see a dashboard like this:
QueryOnce connected, you can query Synapse SQL using supported Transact-SQL (T-SQL) statements against the instance. Select New query from the dashboard view to get started.
For example, you can use the following Transact-SQL statement to query Parquet files using serverless SQL pool:
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM
OPENROWSET(
BULK 'https://azureopendatastorage.blob.core.windows.net/censusdatacontainer/release/us_population_county/year=20*/*.parquet',
FORMAT='PARQUET'
