About this blueprint

SQL dbt

This flow:

  • clones a dbt Git repository from GitHub
  • pulls a public container image with the required dependencies
  • runs dbt CLI commands within a container

This flow assumes that your Snowflake credentials are stored as secrets.

To run a flow from this blueprint, you can simply copy-paste the contents of your ~/.dbt/profiles.yml into the profiles section and you're good to go!
