 ### Running a dbt Docker image in a container
 
 The `ENTRYPOINT` for dbt Docker images is the command `dbt`. You can bind-mount your project to `/usr/app` and use dbt as normal:
+
+```
+docker run \
+--network=host \
+--mount type=bind,source=path/to/project,target=/usr/app \
+--mount type=bind,source=path/to/profiles.yml,target=/root/.dbt/profiles.yml \
+<dbt_image_name> \
+ls
+```
+
+Or 
+
 ```
 docker run \
 --network=host \
 --mount type=bind,source=path/to/project,target=/usr/app \
---mount type=bind,source=path/to/profiles.yml,target=/root/.dbt/ \
+--mount type=bind,source=path/to/profiles.yml.dbt,target=/root/.dbt/ \
 <dbt_image_name> \
 ls
 ```
