The first "Compatible" release will be in December 2024, after the final release of dbt Core v1.9.0. For December 2024 only, the "Extended" release is the same as "Compatible." Starting in January 2025, "Extended" will be one month behind "Compatible."

To configure an environment in the [dbt Cloud Admin API](/docs/dbt-cloud-apis/admin-cloud-api) or [Terraform](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/dbt-labs/dbtcloud/latest) to use a release track, set `dbt_version` to the release track name:
- `latest` (formerly called `versionless`; the old name is still supported)
- `compatible` (available to Team + Enterprise)
- `extended` (available to Enterprise)
- `latest` (or `versionless`, the old name is still supported)
- `compatible`

<Expandable alt_header="I'm using an older version of dbt in dbt Cloud. What should I do? What happens if I do nothing?" >

If you're running dbt version v1.6 or older, please know that your version of dbt Core has reached [end-of-life (EOL)](/docs/dbt-versions/core#eol-version-support) and is no longer supported. We strongly recommend that you update to a newer version as soon as reasonably possible.

dbt Labs has extended the "Critical Support" period of dbt Core v1.7 for dbt Cloud Enterprise customers while we work through the migration with those customers to Release Tracks. In the meantime, this means that v1.7 will continue to be accessible in dbt Cloud for Enteprise customers, jobs and environments on v1.7 for those customers will not be automatically migrated to "Latest," and dbt Labs will continue to fix critical bugs and security issues.

dbt Cloud accounts on the Developer and Team plans will be migrated to the "Latest" release track after November 1, 2024. If you know that your project will not be compatible with the upgrade, for one of the reasons described here, or a different reason in your own testing, you should [contact dbt Cloud support](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-support#dbt-cloud-support) to request an extension.

If your account has been migrated to the "Latest" release track, and you are seeing net-new failures in your scheduled dbt jobs, you should also [contact dbt Cloud support](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-support#dbt-cloud-support) to request an extension.
Starting in October 2024, dbt Cloud accounts on the Developer and Team plans have been migrated to release tracks from older dbt Core versions. If your account was migrated to the "Latest" release track and you notice new failures in scheduled jobs, please [contact dbt Cloud support](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/dbt-support#dbt-cloud-support) to report the problem or request an extension.
