dbt Cloud Outage History

The dbt Cloud Studio IDE experienced an issue where the compile button failed with a "dbt9002: Failed to find compiled SQL" error on the Fusion-Latest environment, affecting users after 2 PM Eastern time. While the compile button was broken, inline compilation for builds and data preview continued to function normally. The team identified the root cause and deployed a fix after 49.3 hours of investigation and monitoring.

dbt Cloud experienced incorrect logging that caused "Warn dbt1410: dbt State service was requested but no validated client is available for node" messages to appear during Scheduled Jobs execution after 12 PM Eastern. The warning logs did not cause actual errors and jobs continued to complete successfully, but created noise in the logging output. The team deployed a fix after 3.8 hours to resolve the incorrect logging issue.

dbt Cloud experienced connectivity issues that affected all warehouse connections across the Studio IDE, CLI, and Jobs for 2.5 hours. The team identified the root cause and deployed a fix to resolve the connectivity problems. All affected services were restored and continued to be monitored following the resolution.

Between May 24, 8:52 pm – 8:55 pm UTC, a small number of dbt Cloud runs experienced failures when trying to retrieve publication artifacts due to the Cloud Artifacts API being unavailable. Users encountered the error "Error retrieving publications: the Cloud Artifacts API is currently unavailable. Please try again later." The issue was resolved after 4 minutes and the service returned to normal operation.

A CLI Server issue in dbt Cloud's US Multi-Cell Azure region caused elevated 5xx errors that prevented Studio IDE sessions from loading properly for 17 minutes.

A Snowflake adapter issue on dbt Cloud's Latest release track caused jobs to fail with connection timeouts when fetching large query result sets, with the connector timing out after 7 seconds while retrieving data from Snowflake's internal storage. The issue affected deployments using Snowflake on the Latest release track for 76.1 hours. The problem was resolved by deploying a fix to the Snowflake adapter, with users able to work around the issue by switching to the Compatible or Extended release tracks.

The dbt Cloud Billing Admin Page experienced intermittent failures and timeouts with 5XX errors for 4.7 hours, affecting billing usage functionality across all instances.

Other dbt platform services including the IDE, scheduler, runs, and API remained unaffected throughout the incident.

dbt Cloud experienced a CI outage affecting Azure DevOps integrations, causing missing Pull Requests tabs in CI jobs and displaying incorrect error messages about repository connectivity.

The team deployed a fix that restored CI triggers and the UI to normal operation.

The dbt Platform CLI State Selector experienced runtime errors when using version 2026.5.12+b52ab1d, affecting users' ability to properly execute state selection functionality. The issue was identified and a fix was deployed within 40 minutes, with the team continuing to monitor the resolution.

dbt Cloud experienced an issue where deployment jobs using BigQuery connections were failing to generate profiles and getting cancelled due to incorrect credential errors.
