## Incremental Models | ||
|
||
**Incremental model [samples](../models/_samples/incremental/example_incremental_model.sql)** | ||

|
||
**Incremental model with unique key [samples](../models/_samples/incremental/example_incremental_model_with_unique_key.sql)** | ||

**Source data that incremental models are built upon [samples](../models/_samples/incremental/example_source_for_incremental.sql)** | ||
- The "source" data that the incremental models are built on top of. The "source" dataset will have a record for every second (up until the current timestamp) in the current month | ||
- This allows the source table to always have more data everytime we query it (which also explains why the source is confiugred as a view) | ||
- To use the incremental models downstream of this "source" model, just build the "source" model once and then you can run any of the downstream incremental models as many times as you'd like | ||
