Hi everyone!
Is is possible to pass options to the dbt run in the cloud interface, e.g. the --full-refresh option for incremental tables?
Hello @babo,
Yes, you can definitely pass the --full-refresh flag in the cloud interface (both in jobs and the IDE).
Thanks! For some reason it wasn’t obvious to me that I can change the command before running, I thought it’s a button that says dbt run 
Actually, I think this discussion is still super relevant.
DBT Cloud should have a toggle button during run now which runs ad-hoc full refresh. It’s inconvenient (and risky) to alter a scheduled production job for some one-off details, and then restore it after.
Of course, you can have a separate job for a full refresh but that doesn’t work in practice because of the expectation for dbt docs to sit on top of a single job’s artifacts.
