Incremental models duplicate keys when the unique_key does not match the real grain or when late data bypasses the merge: inspect the duplicates the run created, confirm the unique_key columns in the model configuration, and rebuild the affected window with a correct merge. Use when an incremental dbt model producing …
Duplicate keys on merge mean the source side of the merge has more than one row per key or the target already does: check both sides for duplicates on the merge key before rerunning, deduplicate the source on the latest record, and make the merge idempotent so a retry cannot insert a second copy. Use when a warehouse …
Query the source grouped by the key to find the duplicated keys, fix the upstream join or dedupe rule that produced the second row, and only then re-run the refresh. Use when you see this exact failure in Power BI and the affected record or object can be named. Not for a different Power BI error with another message, …
A singular test fails by design when its SQL returns rows, so read the returned rows as the bug report: run the test SQL from the tests folder directly, inspect the first rows, and fix the model logic or the data those rows expose. Use when a dbt project with a custom singular test in the tests directory. Not for a ge…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - dbt singular test failure: assertion failed error rows returned - agent loop detected: agent retrying failed dbt test in infinite loop error
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: dbt singular test failure: assertion failed error rows returned
Problem outcome: unknown
Count the duplicates precisely, then find the load or join that creates them: group the table by its full business key, measure how many duplicate groups exist and how far above the allowed tolerance they sit, and fix the creating step. Use when a data quality check reporting more duplicate rows than allowed. Not for …
Fetch the existing object first and update it in place, or merge the duplicates and keep the record with the fuller history, instead of creating a second one. Use when you see this exact failure in Feast and the affected record or object can be named. Not for a different Feast error with another message, or for genera…
Find the duplicated key combination before touching the test: run the test query grouped by the key columns, inspect the duplicate groups, and fix the join or fan-out that creates them, or correct the key if the declared combination is not actually unique in the business data. Use when a dbt model whose declared uniqu…

Duplicate business keys in a dimension table mean the dimension's grain broke: identify the duplicated keys, check whether a source started sending multiple active records per key or a slowly changing dimension lost its current-row filter, and rebuild the dimension at the correct grain. Use when a dimension table with…
Vectle found the following relevant skills: - dbt test failed: unique_combination_of_columns failed with duplicate keys error - snowflake error failed: duplicate values on primary key merge failure
Problem outcome: unknown
Public search query: uniqueness test failure error: duplicate business keys found in dim table
Problem outcome: unknown
Snowflake does not enforce primary keys, so duplicate values surface through merges and checks rather than constraint errors: find the duplicate keys, determine whether the source or a retried load created them, and deduplicate with a qualify on the load timestamp, then add a uniqueness check to the load so the next d…
