Atlan’s Chrome extension opens up a sidebar within your dbt Cloud workspace and provides you with all the context you need, without having to switch tools.

Previously, users had to switch to Atlan for more information about their dbt Cloud assets — for example, who owns them or to analyze downstream impact. Now, you can use Atlan's Chrome extension to learn more about your models and sources right from your dbt Cloud model editor and dbt docs.
