# 🎯 How do I use the dbt package?
## Step 1: Prerequisites
## How do I use the dbt package?
### Step 1: Prerequisites
To use this dbt package, you must have the following:

- At least one Fivetran stripe connector syncing data into your destination.
- At least one Fivetran stripe connector syncing data into your destination.
- A **BigQuery**, **Snowflake**, **Redshift**, **Databricks**, or **PostgreSQL** destination.

### Databricks Dispatch Configuration
#### Databricks Dispatch Configuration
If you are using a Databricks destination with this package you will need to add the below (or a variation of the below) dispatch configuration within your `dbt_project.yml`. This is required in order for the package to accurately search for macros within the `dbt-labs/spark_utils` then the `dbt-labs/dbt_utils` packages respectively.
```yml
dispatch:
- macro_namespace: dbt_utils
search_order: ['spark_utils', 'dbt_utils']
```

## Step 2: Install the package (skip if also using the `stripe` transformation package)
### Step 2: Install the package (skip if also using the `stripe` transformation package)
If you are **not** using the [Stripe transformation package](https:/fivetran/dbt_stripe), include the following package version in your `packages.yml` file. If you are installing the transform package, the source package is automatically installed as a dependency.
> TIP: Check [dbt Hub](https://hub.getdbt.com/) for the latest installation instructions or [read the dbt docs](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/package-management) for more information on installing packages.
```yaml
packages:
- package: fivetran/stripe_source
version: [">=0.12.0", "<0.13.0"]
```
## Step 3: Define database and schema variables
### Step 3: Define database and schema variables
By default, this package runs using your destination and the `stripe` schema. If this is not where your stripe data is (for example, if your stripe schema is named `stripe_fivetran`), add the following configuration to your root `dbt_project.yml` file:

```yml
vars:
stripe_database: your_destination_name
stripe_schema: your_schema_name
```
## Step 4: Disable models for non-existent sources
### Step 4: Disable models for non-existent sources
This package takes into consideration that not every Stripe account utilizes the `invoice`, `invoice_line_item`, `payment_method`, `payment_method_card`, `plan`, `price`, `subscription`, `product`, or `credit_note` features, and allows you to disable the corresponding functionality. By default, all variables' values are assumed to be `true` with the exception of `credit_note`. Add variables for only the tables you want to disable or enable respectively:

```yml

### Unioning Multiple Stripe Connectors
#### Unioning Multiple Stripe Connectors
If you have multiple Stripe connectors you would like to use this package on simultaneously, we have added the ability to do so. Data from disparate connectors will be unioned together and be passed downstream to the end models. The `source_relation` column will specify where each record comes from. To use this functionality, you will need to either set the `stripe_union_schemas` or `stripe_union_databases` variables. Please also make sure the single-source `stripe_database` and `stripe_schema` variables are removed.

```yml

### Leveraging Plan vs Price Sources
#### Leveraging Plan vs Price Sources

Customers using Fivetran with the newer [Stripe Price API](https://stripe.com/docs/billing/migration/migrating-prices) will have a `price` table, and possibly a `plan` table if that was used previously. Therefore to accommodate two different source tables we added logic to check if there exists a `price` table by default. If not, it will leverage the `plan` table. However if you wish to use the `plan` table instead, you may set `stripe__using_price` to `false` in your `dbt_project.yml` to override the macro.

### Leveraging Subscription Vs Subscription History Sources
#### Leveraging Subscription Vs Subscription History Sources
For Stripe connectors set up after February 09, 2022 the `subscription` table has been replaced with the new `subscription_history` table. By default this package will look for your subscription data within the `subscription_history` source table. However, if you have an older connector then you must configure the `stripe__using_subscription_history` to `false` in order to have the package use the `subscription` source rather than the `subscription_history` table.
> **Please note that if you have `stripe__using_subscription_history` enabled then the package will filter for only active records.**
```yml
vars:
stripe__using_subscription_history: False # True by default. Set to False if your connector syncs the `subscription` table instead.
```

### Running on Live vs Test Customers
#### Running on Live vs Test Customers
By default, this package will run on non-test data (`where livemode = true`) from the source Stripe tables. However, you may want to include and focus on test data when testing out the package or developing your analyses. To run on only test data, add the following configuration to your root `dbt_project.yml` file:

```yml
vars:
stripe_source:
stripe__using_livemode: false # Default = true
```
### Including sub Invoice Line Items
#### Including sub Invoice Line Items
By default, this package will filter out any records from the `invoice_line_item` source table which include the string `sub_`. This is due to a legacy Stripe issue where `sub_` records were found to be duplicated. However, if you highly utilize these records you may wish they be included in the final output of the `stg_stripe__invoice_line_item` model. To do, so you may include the below variable configuration in your root `dbt_project.yml`:
```yml
vars:
stripe_source:
stripe__using_invoice_line_sub_filter: false # Default = true
```

### Pivoting out Metadata Properties
#### Pivoting out Metadata Properties
Oftentimes you may have custom fields within your source tables that is stored as a JSON object that you wish to pass through. By leveraging the `metadata` variable, this package pivot out fields into their own columns. The metadata variables accept dictionaries in addition to strings.

Additionally, you may `alias` your field if you happen to be using a reserved word as a metadata field, any otherwise incompatible name, or just wish to rename your field. Below are examples of how you would add the respective fields.

By default, this package builds the stripe staging models within a schema titled (`<target_schema>` + `_stg_stripe`) in your destination. If this is not where you would like your stripe staging data to be written to, add the following configuration to your root `dbt_project.yml` file:
