What does Atlan crawl from dbt Cloud?

Atlan crawls and maps the following assets and properties from dbt Cloud.

Once you've crawled dbt, you can use dbt-specific filters for quick asset discovery:

  • Test status — filter dbt tests that passed, failed, or have a warning
  • Alias — filter by the name of a dbt model's identifier in the dbt project
  • Unique id — filter by the unique node identifier of a dbt model
  • Account name — filter by dbt account name
  • Project name — filter by dbt project name
  • Job name — filter by dbt job name
  • Package name — filter by dbt package name
  • Environment name — filter by dbt environment name
  • Job status — filter by dbt job status
  • Last job run — filter by the last run of the dbt job
  • Last job run (created at) — filter by when a job run was created
  • Last job run (updated at) — filter by when a job run was completed
  • Last job run (dequeued at) — filter by when the dbt job scheduler dequeued a job from the wait queue and triggered a run
  • Last job run (started at) — filter by when the latest job run started after the job scheduler triggered a run

Atlan's dbt connectivity also populates custom metadata to further enrich the assets in Atlan. The Atlan dbt-specific property column in the tables below gives the name of the mapped custom metadata property in Atlan.

💪 Did you know? Atlan allows you to sync your dbt tags and update your dbt assets with the synced tags. It is also possible to map other metadata on Atlan's assets through your dbt models.
