Steps overview: Integrate dbt Cloud via Edge
The following table shows the required steps for integration.
| # | Step | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Review the preflight checks. | Key considerations to help ensure successful integration, including required Edge, technical lineage, and data source-specific permissions, network requirements and more. |
| 2 |
Create a dbt Cloud connection. |
Create a dbt connection to allow Collibra Data Lineage to connect to and retrieve metadata from dbt Cloud. |
| 3 |
Add the Technical Lineage for dbt Cloud capability. |
Add the technical lineage capability to your Edge or Collibra Cloud site. The capability allows the lineage harvester to retrieve data from your data source. |
| 4 | Synchronize the technical lineage. |
You can synchronize your technical lineage manually or automatically by adding a synchronization schedule. |
After you synchronize the technical lineage, you can view the ingestion report. This shows the impact of technical lineage synchronization on the assets in Collibra.
