Overview

Secoda, an automated data documentation tool, offers seamless integration with dbt. With this integration, Secoda can automatically tag columns that contain specific keywords from dbt metadata. This means that you can greatly reduce the time spent on manual documentation and instead focus on distributing insights. Secoda generates comprehensive data documentation, including descriptions for tables, columns, and glossary terms, all without the need for extensive input from your side. By streamlining the documentation process, Secoda and dbt integration empower you to maximize efficiency and productivity in your data analysis workflows.

How it works

Secoda's integration with dbt allows for seamless automation of workflows. Triggers serve as the catalysts for initiating the workflow, following predetermined schedules or custom timing. Meanwhile, Actions are the driving force behind the automation, enabling various operations like data filtering and metadata updates. By stacking these actions, tailored workflows can be created to suit specific team requirements. In the context of metadata in dbt, Secoda empowers users to effortlessly tag columns containing specific keywords, automating the process and reducing the need for extensive manual documentation. With this integration, users can allocate more time towards distributing insights rather than engaging in repetitive documentation tasks.
