As of late 2025, Databricks’ Lakeflow Spark Declarative Pipelines (SDP) introduced create_auto_cdc_flow() (Python) and AUTO CDC ... INTO (SQL), which replace the older DLT apply_changes API and let you customize the CDC behavior declaratively—keys, sequencing, delete/truncate handling, SCD1 vs SCD2, column-level history, null-update rules, and more.
