Branching Mode

A sync can operate in one of two configuration modes. This setting only impacts the way that syncs are configured and changes are managed, not the actual sync capabilities in any way.

Branching disabled

This is the default and how most data integration tools work. Sync settings are modified by simply overwriting the existing ones directly (though you do have the opportunity to fire some test records first).

Branching enabled

With branching enabled, the Sync settings are modified in a branch (see Branching). Changes are proposed and tested in isolation from the current production settings, and applied once they are ready.

You must enable branching tn order to use the dbt integration.
