Node Type

A Node Type controls how Nodes behave. Each type includes:

  • A YAML Node definition with UI fields, naming, and defaults.
  • A Create Template for DDL at Deploy.
  • A Run Template for DML at Refresh.

Coalesce ships default types such as Source, Stage, Dimension, Fact, and View. You can duplicate defaults, build custom types, or author Node Type V2 SQL-first types.

Manage types in Build Settings > Node Types. Enabled types appear when you add Nodes to the Graph.

See Nodes and Node Types and the Node Type Editor.
