It seems you're encountering a validation error when trying to load a
dbt-profile
of block type
dbt-cli-profile
in Prefect Cloud. This issue doesn't occur locally, which suggests it might be related to how the profile is being validated or configured in the cloud environment. Here are some steps and considerations that might help: 1. Validation Issue: The error message indicates that a required field, likely within
target_configs
, is missing. Ensure that your configuration in Prefect Cloud matches what you have locally, including any environment variables or secrets. 2. Profiles Directory: Make sure the
profiles_dir
is correctly set. If not specified, Prefect will use the
DBT_PROFILES_DIR
environment variable. If this variable is unset, it defaults to
$HOME/.dbt/
. Ensure this path is accessible in your cloud environment. 3. Environment Variables: If your
profiles.yml
uses environment variables, ensure that these are correctly set in Prefect Cloud. Prefect Secret blocks can be used for this purpose. 4. Prefect Blocks: If you're using Prefect blocks like the Snowflake Connector block, ensure these are properly configured to generate the
profiles.yml
as expected. 5. Documentation: Check the Prefect DBT integration documentation for more detailed examples and guidance on setting up DBT profiles with Prefect. If the problem persists, you might want to consider reaching out to the Prefect community or support for more tailored assistance.
It seems you are encountering a validation error with the
dbt-cli-profile
block type in Prefect Cloud, but not locally. This discrepancy might be due to differences in environment configuration between your local setup and Prefect Cloud. Here are a few things to check: 1. Profiles Directory: Ensure that the
profiles_dir
is correctly set in your Prefect Cloud environment. If not explicitly set, Prefect might be defaulting to
$HOME/.dbt/
, which could differ between environments. You can set this using the
DBT_PROFILES_DIR
environment variable. 2. Environment Variables: If your
profiles.yml
relies on environment variables, make sure these are correctly configured in Prefect Cloud. You can use Prefect Secret blocks to manage these environment variables. 3. Block Configuration: Double-check that the
DbtCliProfile
block is configured correctly in Prefect Cloud. Ensure all required fields, especially
target_configs.type
, are specified. For more detailed guidance, you can refer to the Prefect DBT Integration Documentation. If these suggestions don't resolve the issue, it might be worth reviewing your specific configuration or reaching out to Prefect support for more tailored assistance.
