This is probably more applicable for the dbt Slack community but I'm going to try here anyways. I'm confused about the models not needing to be declared in the

.yml

with schemas etc. Seems that if I just drop my

.sql

files in the

models

folder the views are created. So far so good. I want to integrate it with Metabase, and it seems

dbt-metabase

needs the models to be properly declared in the YaML files... But I wonder; why introduce this source of inconsistency? My `SELECT`s may very well not have the same schema as whatever I declare in

models.yml

. To me the query should be enough declaration in itself, shouldn't it? Thread in Slack Conversation
