What Source Tables Are Required to Support Fivetran dbt Models?

Question

I am setting up Fivetran dbt models for my connection. Is there a list of source tables I need to include in my schema to support the dbt transformations? If so, where can I find it?

Environment

• Projects using Fivetran data models
• Projects using Quickstart data models

Answer

Yes, each Fivetran dbt model has a list of required source tables. To find them:

1. Go to our Fivetran Data Models documentation.
2. In the left-hand navigation menu, select the model relevant to your connection.
3. In the article title, click Docs.
4. The data model's dbt Docs page opens. On the dbt Docs page, click Projects.
5. In the left-hand navigation menu, under Sources, select the relevant source.
6. On the source page, make a note of the Source Tables. These tables are required for your transformation to function correctly.
