+- **Enhancement**: In dbt Cloud Versionless, snapshots defined in SQL files can now use `config` defined in `schema.yml` YAML files. This update resolves the previous limitation that required snapshot properties to be defined exclusively in `dbt_project.yml` and/or a `config()` block within the SQL file. This enhancement will be included in the upcoming dbt Core v1.9 release.
 - **New:** dbt Explorer now includes trust signal icons, which is currently available as a [Preview](/docs/dbt-versions/product-lifecycles#dbt-cloud). Trust signals offer a quick, at-a-glance view of data health when browsing your dbt models in Explorer. These icons indicate whether a model is **Healthy**, **Caution**, **Degraded**, or **Unknown**. For accurate health data, ensure the resource is up-to-date and has had a recent job run. Refer to [Trust signals](/docs/collaborate/explore-projects#trust-signals-for-resources) for more information. 
 - **New:** Auto exposures are now available in Preview in dbt Cloud. Auto-exposures helps users understand how their models are used in downstream analytics tools to inform investments and reduce incidents. It imports and auto-generates exposures based on Tableau dashboards, with user-defined curation. To learn more, refer to [Auto exposures](/docs/collaborate/auto-exposures).
