# Run dbt™ Command

> Add dbt™ commands to a Paradime Bolt schedule to run, test, build, and orchestrate your dbt™ project on a managed cloud runner with Paradime.

Run one or more dbt™ commands in a Bolt schedule to build, test, and orchestrate your transformations.

## Prerequisites

* A dbt™ project connected to your Paradime workspace.

<Info>
  Paradime automatically runs `dbt deps` at the start of every Bolt run, so you do not need to add it to your commands.
</Info>

## Usage

Add the **Run dbt™ Command** command to your schedule and enter one or more dbt™ commands, one per line:

```bash theme={"system"}
dbt seed
dbt run --select +orders
dbt test
```

Use the `--target` flag to run against a connection other than the Scheduler Environment default (for example, `dbt run --target ci`).
