The CMS detector at Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a multipurpose detector with capabilities to identify electrons, muons, photons, as well as charged and neutral hadrons. Its tracking system consists of two silicon based sub-detectors the inner tracker with pixels and the outer tracker with strips. The silicon strip tracker has an active area of approximately 200 m$^2$ containing more than 15000 silicon modules. In this talk, we show the operation and performance of the silicon strip tracker during the LHC Run 3 data taking.Performance metrics including signal-to-noise ratio, hit efficiency and resolution, evolution of bad module components will be presented. The results affirm that the tracker sustained excellent performance throughout Run 3, thereby ensuring the high-quality tracking required for precision CMS physics analyses.
