How is data stored in dbt State?
dbt State sends the following metadata to dbt Labs servers:
- Last-modified timestamps — used to determine whether upstream data has changed since the last run
- SQL statement hashes — SQL statements are hashed before transmission, so dbt Labs cannot see the contents; only hashes are stored and compared across runs to detect logic changes
No actual data from your warehouse is transmitted.
The dbt State service runs in a single US multi-tenant (MT) instance and does not make any live connections to your data warehouse. For data retention details, refer to the dbt Labs privacy policy.
