Using dbt with Dagster+

Using a dbt project in Dagster+ allows you to automatically load your dbt models as Dagster assets. This can be be done with both deployment options in Dagster+: Serverless and Hybrid.

Learn more about deployment options in Dagster+.

Serverless deployments​

If you have a Serverless deployment, you can directly import an existing dbt project in Dagster+ when adding a new code location.

For more information, see "Using dbt with Serverless deployments in Dagster+".

Hybrid deployments​

If you have a Hybrid deployment, you must make the dbt project accessible to the Dagster code executed by your agent.

  • When using Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS), Kubernetes, or Docker agent, you must include the dbt project in the Docker Image containing your Dagster code.
  • When using a local agent, you must make your dbt project accessible to your Dagster code on the same machine as your agent.
