- **Enhancement**: In the "Latest" release track in dbt Cloud, snapshots defined in SQL files can now use `config` defined in `schema.yml` YAML files.

- This use of `+`, controlling clobber vs. add merge behavior, is distinct from the use of `+` in `dbt_project.yml` (shown in the example above) for defining configs with dictionary values. For more information, see [the plus prefix](https://docs.getdbt.com/reference/resource-configs/plus-prefix).
- `grants` is the first config to support a `+` prefix for controlling config merge behavior. Currently, it's the only one. If it proves useful, we may extend this capability to new and existing configs in the future.
+### Conditional grants
+
+Like any other config, you can use Jinja to vary the grants in different contexts. For example, you might grant different permissions in prod than dev:
+
+
+
+```yml
+models:
+ +grants:
+ select: "{{ ['user_a', 'user_b'] if target.name == 'prod' else ['user_c'] }}"
+```
+
+
+
+## Revoking grants
+
+dbt only modifies grants on a node (including revocation) when a `grants` configuration is attached to that node. For example, imagine you had originally specified the following grants in `dbt_project.yml`:
+
+
+
+```yml
+models:
+ +grants:
+ select: ['user_a', 'user_b']
+```
+
+
+
+If you delete the entire `+grants` section, dbt assumes you no longer want it to manage grants and doesn't change anything. To have dbt revoke all existing grants from a node, provide an empty list of grantees.
+
+

+
+

+ ```yml
+ models:
