Error when using quoted column identifiers with snowflake

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

dbt run and dbt test finishes successfully, i.e. correct table and column specification, though lightdash cannot parse column specification from schema.yml. Note: Lightdash correctly sees table name, as per screenshot.

dbt_project.yml :

quoting:
  database: false
  schema: true
  identifier: true

Expected behavior

Lightdash correctly respect quoting, especially when using snowflake as a backend

Hey @Vfisa thanks for opening the bug, just to keep you up to date. we’re making some final adjustments to charts this week. We’ll reprioritise again next Tuesday! In the mean time I’m going to take a look at the code to determine how complex this will be to support.

Quoting is such a headache 😰
