> Beyond the default mapped [dbt Cloud](/apps/connectors/etl-tools/dbt/references/what-does-atlan-crawl-from-dbt-cloud) or [dbt Core](/apps/connectors/etl-tools/dbt/references/what-does-atlan-crawl-from-dbt-core) properties, you can update any of Atlan's metadata attributes (except for `name`, `tenantId`, and `qualifiedName`) through your dbt model's `meta` property.

Atlan lets you push metadata into the catalog straight from your dbt models' meta property.

Beyond the default mapped [dbt Cloud](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/dbt/what-does-atlan-crawl-from-dbt-cloud/llms.txt) or [dbt Core](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/dbt/what-does-atlan-crawl-from-dbt-core/llms.txt) properties, you can update any of Atlan's metadata attributes (except for `name`, `tenantId`, and `qualifiedName`) through your dbt model's `meta` property.

For example, you can set:
Announcements, atlan domains, certificates, custom metadata, descriptions, owners, atlan readme, tags, and terms on dbt assets and the assets that dbt materializes whenever applicable.

For more details on _how_ to do these updates, including various examples, see the _dbt_ tabs in the [Common asset actions](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/platform/python/how-tos/llms.txt) snippets of the developer documentation:
