# DuckDB

> Integrate Duckdb with Paradime to enables deploying dbt™ in production with Bolt

<Warning>
  **IP RESTRICTIONS**

  Make sure to allow traffic from one of the Paradime IPs in your firewall depending on the data location selected.

  👉 See also: [Paradime IP addresses](https://docs.paradime.io/app-help/developers/ip-restrictions).
</Warning>

### Add the DinoAI agent environment connection

To add the DuckDB DinoAI agent environment connection, follow these instructions:

1. Click **Settings** in the top menu bar of the Paradime interface to access **Account Settings**
2. In the left sidebar, click **Connections**
3. Click **Add New** next to the **DinoAI Background Agent Environment** section
4. Select **DuckDB** and fill out the corresponding fields.

### Configuration for a DuckDB connection

In the DinoAI agent environment setup screen, fill in the form with the connection details DinoAI will use to run dbt™ models against a DuckDB database.

In this example we are connecting to `s3` to read/write `parquet` files using an AWS access key and secret. These secrets can be stored in the [user environment variable settings](https://docs.paradime.io/app-help/documentation/settings/environment-variables/code-ide-env-variables).
