currently the doc mentions source only supports enabled. but other pages show that it supports meta, and not event_time.

added an example here, does that make sense? tried to keep it with the clickstream example.

| In this example, the `event_time` is set to `event_timestamp`, which has the exact time each clickstream event happened. | ||
| Not only is this required for the [incremental microbatching strategy]((/docs/build/incremental-microbatch)), but when you compare data across [CI and production](/docs/deploy/advanced-ci#considerations) environments, dbt will use `event_timestamp` to filter and match data by this event-based timeframe, ensuring that only overlapping timeframes are compared. |

Hiya @mirnawong1
This link takes me to a page not found.
I think this is the correct link: /docs/build/incremental-microbatch (I think it might be the double brackets causing the issue)
Kind Regards

thanks so much @nataliefiann , ok i fixed the link! it was the double parenthesis and also the #considerations is wrong - it should be/docs/deploy/advanced-ci#speeding-up-comparisons instead! great catch!

Hiya @mirnawong1
Thanks for creating this doc. There was one error on the page. The microbatch link in line 279 took me to a page not found. I think this may be because of the double brackets.
Kind Regards

this pr adds the
event_timeconfig to snapshots/seeds/sources/models pages since it's now supported.this also updates the sources config page as it only mentioned that 'enabled' is supported, but it looks like enabled, event_time, and meta are supported for sources.
this pr will merge into #6383
