dbt Analytics Engineering Certification

Consider this dbt_project.yml:

name: "jaffle_shop"  
version: "1.0.0"  
config-version: 2  
profile: "snowflake"  
model-paths: ["models"]  
macro-paths: ["macros"]  
snapshot-paths: ["snapshots"]  
target-path: "target"  
clean-targets:  
  - "logs"  
  - "target"  
  - "dbt_modules"  
  - "dbt_packages"  
models:  
  jaffle_shop:  
    orders:  
      materialized: table  

When you execute dbt run, your models build as views rather than tables:

19:36:14 Found 1 model, 0 tests, 0 snapshots, 0 analyses, 179 macros, 0 operations, 0 seed files, 0 sources, 0 exposures, 0 metrics  
19:36:16 Concurrency: 1 threads (target='default')  
19:36:17 Finished running 1 view model in 3.35s.  
19:36:17 Completed successfully  
19:36:17 Done. PASS=1 WARN=0 ERROR=0 SKIP=0 TOTAL=1  

Could the following be a root cause of the model not being materialized as a table?

The target-path is incorrectly configured.
