|ak| Topic Configuration Reference for |cp|
============================================
This topic provides topic-level configuration parameters available for |cp|. The :term:`Kafka topic` configuration
parameters are listed in alphabetical order.
Topic configurations have a server default and an optional per-topic override.
If no per-topic value is provided, the server default is used.
The server property for a given topic configuration is provided in the **Server Default Property** entry for each configuration.
You can specify a topic override for a configuration when you create a topic using the ``kafka-topic`` tool and the ``--config`` option.
You can modify the value for a topic override using the ``kafka-configs`` tool and the ``--alter`` option. To learn about dynamically modifying a topic
configuration value, see :ref:`kafka_dyn-topic_config`.
To learn more about topics in |ak-tm|, see the `Topics module – Apache Kafka
101 `__ and `Kafka Internals `__ free courses. You can find code
samples for different programming languages in `Getting Started with Apache Kafka `__.
