About this integration

Dagster allows you to run dbt Cloud™ jobs alongside other technologies. You can schedule them to run as a step in a larger pipeline and manage them as a data asset.

Installation

pip install dagster-dbt

Example

from dagster_dbt import dbt_cloud_resource, load_assets_from_dbt_cloud_job
import os

# configure a resource to connect to your dbt Cloud instance
dbt_cloud = dbt_cloud_resource.configured(
    {"auth_token": os.environ["DBT_CLOUD_AUTH_TOKEN"], "account_id": 11111}
)

# import assets from dbt
dbt_cloud_assets = load_assets_from_dbt_cloud_job(
    dbt_cloud=dbt_cloud,
    job_id=33333,
)
