Hi All,
I’ve recently started learning dbt and I’m following the dbt Fundamentals (VS Code) course.
While going through the setup process, I noticed a continuity issue between “Install the dbt VS Code Extension + dbt Fusion Engine (Windows)” and the step where we create the profiles.yml file.
In the first video, the Snowflake configuration and connection details shown are completely different. Later, the course clones the dbt Fundamentals project from GitHub into a separate project folder.
However, when creating the profiles.yml file inside this new dbt Fundamentals project, the Snowflake account, user, warehouse, schema, role, and other configuration details shown in the video are completely different from those in the earlier setup.
I couldn’t find any explanation in the course about why these Snowflake configurations change, whether they are supposed to be different, or which values a learner should actually use.
Could someone please clarify how these two setups are related and what configuration I should follow?
I’ve attached screenshots from the official course video for reference.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated, as I’m currently stuck at this step.
