About the visual editor beta
The dbt Cloud visual editor helps analysts quickly create, edit, and visualize dbt models through a visual, drag-and-drop experience and with a built-in AI for custom code generation.
The visual editor in dbt Cloud provides users with a seamless and visual, drag-and-drop experience inside dbt Cloud. It's available in private beta for dbt Cloud Enterprise accounts.
To join the private beta, register your interest or reach out to your account team to begin this process.
The visual editor allows organizations to enjoy the many benefits of code-driven development—such as increased precision, ease of debugging, and ease of validation — while retaining the flexibility to have different contributors develop wherever they are most comfortable. Users can also take advantage of built-in AI for custom code generation, making it an end-to-end frictionless experience.
These models compile directly to SQL and are indistinguishable from other dbt models in your projects:
- Visual models are version-controlled in your backing Git provider.
- All models are accessible across projects in dbt Mesh.
- Models can be materialized into production through dbt Cloud orchestration, or be built directly into a user's development schema.
- Integrate with dbt Explorer and the dbt Cloud IDE.
