@kapa.ai does disable_dbt_columns_autoupload var work in 0.24

The knowledge sources do not contain specific information about Elementary package version 0.24 or whether
disable_dbt_columns_autoupload
works in that version. What the knowledge sources do show is a history of reliability issues with this variable across multiple versions: • A GitHub issue reports that
disable_dbt_columns_autoupload
was not being respected in version
0.18.1
, with no reference to the variable even existing in the code at that time. [GitHub issue] • The Elementary team suggested using a newer variable as a replacement:
Copy code
vars:
  columns_upload_strategy: none
This was recommended by an Elementary team member as the current preferred approach to skip column uploads. [Slack thread] • The official docs still list
disable_dbt_columns_autoupload: true
as a supported option, but community experience suggests it has been unreliable in some versions. [On-run-end hooks] My recommendation: Try
columns_upload_strategy: none
first, as it appears to be the more up-to-date approach. If neither works in 0.24, you can also explicitly exclude the model:
Copy code
--exclude dbt_columns
For a definitive answer on 0.24 support, I'd suggest checking the Elementary GitHub releases or reaching out directly in the Elementary Slack community. 👍 0 button 👎 0 button ℹ️ Tip: Mention @elementary.ai in the thread for follow-ups or DM the app for 1-to-1 help.
