No Stages Rendered

No Stages Rendered

Description​

The "No Stages Rendered" error typically indicates there is an incorrect or missing configuration within a Node that is preventing the template from rendering properly.

Possible Causes​

  • Dimension Nodes - The "Business Key" may not be configured in the Node Configuration. You need to select the business key columns and move them to the selected side using the arrow button.
  • View Nodes - The "Override Create SQL" option has been enabled, but the SQL in the Create SQL tab is incorrect, missing elements, or doesn't include a proper "CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW" statement. Validate that your SQL statement would execute correctly if pasted directly in your data platform.
  • Node Type Switching Issues - When you switch a Node from one type to another, the old metadata may still be present, causing rendering issues. The solution is to create a new Node from scratch rather than switching types.
  • Missing Required Configuration - Check for any required fields marked with red asterisks in the Node configuration. All required fields must be properly configured for the template to render.

Possible Solutions​

  • Check Node Configuration - Look for any missing required fields (marked with red asterisks) in the Node properties.

  • Validate SQL - If using custom SQL, ensure it's syntactically correct and would run in your data platform.

  • Review Template Errors - Click the arrow at the bottom of the Node to expand error details.

  • Recreate Problem Nodes - If switching Node types, delete and recreate the Node rather than converting it.

  • Check Dependencies - Ensure all referenced objects exist and are properly configured The error essentially means the Jinja template cannot generate the necessary SQL stages due to missing or incorrect configuration parameters.
