This documentation is for the cloud version of dbt which is dbt Cloud. To see documentation on how to connect the open source version of dbt, please check out the documentation for dbt core here.
From the My Account page, select on the dbt tile to be brought to the dbt connection form.
We'll need two credentials to connect to your dbt account:
Account ID
To get your Account ID, you can refer to the numbers at the end of the accounts path component of the URL (https://cloud.getdbt.com/settings/accounts/{account_id}).
API Key
To get your API Key, please read on to the next section to generate your service token for your dbt account.
Log into your dbt account. From the Dashboard, click on Account Settings.
Within Account Settings, find the setting for Service Tokens on the left sidebar.
Within the Service Tokens section, click on + New Token.
Within the New Service Token page, you can set any token name, such as "decube". Then, click on the + Add button.
Select Job Admin and add all the Projects that you would like to connect decube with. Then, click on Save and the bottom right.
A token will be generated. Use the Copy button to copy the token into your clipboard.
Insert the Service token that you've copied into the "API Key" of the connection form, then test the connection. If it is successful, you can now add the name and submit the connection.
If there is any issues or questions related with connecting your data sources, please reach out to us via our Live chat for support.
