- Generates a comprehensive data dictionary of your source and modeled Marketo data through the [dbt docs site](https://fivetran.github.io/dbt_marketo_source/). | ||

## How do I use the dbt package? | ||
|
||
## Step 1: Prerequisites | ||
### Step 1: Prerequisites | ||
To use this dbt package, you must have the following: | ||
|
||
- At least one Fivetran Marketo connector syncing data into your destination. | ||
- A **BigQuery**, **Snowflake**, **Redshift**, **PostgreSQL**, or **Databricks** destination. | ||
|
||
### Databricks Dispatch Configuration | ||
#### Databricks Dispatch Configuration | ||
If you are using a Databricks destination with this package you will need to add the below (or a variation of the below) dispatch configuration within your `dbt_project.yml`. This is required in order for the package to accurately search for macros within the `dbt-labs/spark_utils` then the `dbt-labs/dbt_utils` packages respectively. | ||
```yml | ||
dispatch: | ||
- macro_namespace: dbt_utils | ||
search_order: ['spark_utils', 'dbt_utils'] | ||
``` | ||

### Step 2: Install the package (skip if also using the `Marketo` transformation package) | ||
If you are **not** using the [Marketo transformation package](https://github.com/fivetran/dbt_marketo), include the following package version in your `packages.yml` file. If you are installing the transform package, the source package is automatically installed as a dependency. | ||

By default, this package runs using your destination and the `marketo` schema of your [target database](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/running-a-dbt-project/using-the-command-line-interface/configure-your-profile).

#### Passing Through Additional Columns | ||
This package includes all source columns defined in the macros folder. If you would like to pass through additional columns to the staging models, add the following configurations to your `dbt_project.yml` file. These variables allow for the pass-through fields to be aliased (`alias`) and casted (`transform_sql`) if desired, but not required. Datatype casting is configured via a sql snippet within the `transform_sql` key. You may add the desired sql while omitting the `as field_name` at the end and your custom pass-though fields will be casted accordingly. Use the below format for declaring the respective pass-through variables in your root `dbt_project.yml`. | ||

#### Changing the Build Schema | ||
By default this package will build the Marketo staging models within a schema titled (<target_schema> + `_marketo_source`) in your target database. If this is not where you would like your Marketo data to be written to, add the following configuration to your `dbt_project.yml` file: | ||
