dbt manifest import will visually label dbt sources and models on the diagram and apply attributes like object path in dbt projects, giving users a holistic view of their architectural and transformational data landscape. The exclude from standards flag now lets users exempt (legacy) objects from project standards like case, naming, and glossary translations.

Standalone feature release that moves Model Governance Fields and Pages to Concurrent Working branches. Going forward, Model Governance fields will no longer be editable in the main branch and will undergo the merge process like all other changes. Fields and Pages will no longer save asynchronously; instead, they will use the "Save" button, like all other project changes.

📣This release contains minor changes to the ordering of views generated through Forward Engineering in Snowflake projects

Impact on existing DDL/API functions

Relational Modeling

  • Areas affected:
    • Forward engineering: Generate DDL
    • Forward engineering: Alter Script
    • API: all endpoints that use GET DDL or GET Alterscript

This release brings physical relationship support for global references. We are also adding Snowflake views and materialized views to database documentation for enhanced governance and metadata management all in one place—Excel import is similarly supported. Also, we are adding new rules for glossary term translation so users can apply them selectively to logical, physical, both, or not used (for documenting legacy conventions and disabling existing rules).

Changes with no impact on existing DDL/API functions

Relational Modeling

• Global references support for physical relationships

• Case standards: separate settings for physical and logical names
• Glossary terms new rules: apply to Logical, Physical, Both, Unused
• Snowflake: views and mat. views on database documentation
• Snowflake: views and mat. views in excel import
• Bulk select for explorers (add multiple objects to diagram)

Highlights for this release include iFrame embedding and a revamped and smoother FK linking experience between tables, which addresses the shortcomings present in the tool. Snowflake Views have also been enhanced to offer the same column editing features as tables (e.g., drag-and-drop, assign Tags, rename).

We are sunsetting the "Convert project to" feature in favor of the more inclusive and versatile Logical conversion method. Please read more about converting between project and database types using the Logical conversion methodhere ).
