Learn about the profiles.yaml file that defines the Profiles semantic models.

  •   less than a minute  

The profiles.yaml file defines the Profiles semantic models using models and var_groups.

  • models are defined by the model_type and consist of prepackaged SQL code that takes your inputs and runs it in your warehouse to output the defined views and tables.
  • var_groups define entity_var and input_var used to define the features for feature views.
models:
  <model-config>
var_groups:
  <var-group-config>
KeyDescription
model_config
