I actually don't believe dateadd in dbt_utils is compatible with databricks (looking at the databricks function docs for date_add: https://docs.databricks.com/sql/language-manual/functions/date_add.html). This is a good one to confirm w/ DX (likely Joel) though.

@joellabes What are your thoughts?
Some context: This post ran through how to use DATEADD in each warehouse so I decided to add to add a Databricks section to the content. We're not sure about compatibility with dbt_utils. If not, I should probably just remove the section for Databricks again.

dbt utils itself only supports BQ/SF/RS/Postgres, but other packages can implement overrides. That is done here for dateadd on spark (which powers Databricks, right?) https://github.com/dbt-labs/spark-utils/blob/main/macros/dbt_utils/cross_db_utils/dateadd.sql
So yes you can include Databricks in this.
Note that these will be moving to dbt core in v1.2: dbt-labs/dbt-core#4813

Gotcha, so I'll make a note of that in this section of the content. Thanks Joel!!

Description & motivation
The H1s and H2s weren’t explicitly targeting “dateadd sql." Adding keyword to metas and headers to optimize structure. Also added a "### DATEADD Function in Databricks" section.
