+## Context propagation
+
+**Status**: [Development][DocumentStatus]
+
+### SET CONTEXT_INFO
+
+Instrumentations MAY propagate context using [SET CONTEXT_INFO](https://learn.microsoft.com/sql/t-sql/statements/set-context-info-transact-sql) by injecting fixed-length part of span context (trace-id, span-id, trace-flags, protocol version) before executing a query. For example, when using W3C Trace Context, only a string representation of [`traceparent`](https://www.w3.org/TR/trace-context/#traceparent-header) SHOULD be injected. Context injection SHOULD NOT be enabled by default, but instrumentation MAY allow users to opt into it.
+
+Variable context parts (`tracestate`, `baggage`) SHOULD NOT be injected since `CONTEXT_INFO` value length is limited to 128 bytes.
+
+Instrumentations that propagate context MUST execute `SET CONTEXT_INFO` on the same physical connection as the SQL statement (or reuse its transaction).
+
+Note that `SET CONTEXT_INFO` requires binary input according to its syntax: `SET CONTEXT_INFO { binary_str | @binary_var }` and has a maximum size of 128 bytes.
+
+Example:
+
+For a query `SELECT * FROM songs` where `traceparent` is `00-0af7651916cd43dd8448eb211c80319c-b7ad6b7169203331-01`:
+
+Run the following command on the same physical connection as the SQL statement:
+
+```sql
+-- The binary conversion may be done by the application or the driver.
+DECLARE @traceparent varbinary(55);
+SET @traceparent = CAST('00-0af7651916cd43dd8448eb211c80319c-b7ad6b7169203331-01' AS varbinary(55));
+SET CONTEXT_INFO @traceparent; 
+```
+
+Then run the query:
+
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM songs;
+```
+
 ## Metrics
 
 Microsoft SQL Server client instrumentations SHOULD collect metrics according to the general
