Pausing a dbt Project

You can pause any dbt project that is in an Active state and runs on a schedule. Additionally, you can pause a model that runs on its independent schedule. However, a model scheduled to run in a dbt project cannot be paused.

You can resume the paused dbt projects and models at any time.

To pause the entire dbt project:

• Click the PAUSE button in the dbt Project Summary bar.

  

  This changes the status of the dbt project to PAUSED, and the PAUSE button changes to RESUME. Along with this, all models associated with the dbt project are also paused.

  

• Similarly, click the RESUME button to resume the dbt project.

To pause a model in the dbt project:

Note: You cannot pause a model scheduled to run in a dbt project.

1. Click the More ( ) icon next to the Status of the model that you want to pause.

   

2. Select Pause from the drop-down.

   

   This changes the status of the model to PAUSED.

   

Similarly, select Resume from the drop-down to resume the model.
