+
+You will commonly want to manually materialize assets using the Dagster UI to backfill historical data, debug a production issue, or some other one-off task.
+
+Often, you will want to be able to tweak some parameters when materializing these assets. This can be accomplished through the asset configuration system.
+
+## What you'll learn
+
+- How to add configuration to your assets
+- How to modify the configuration when launching a run
+- When to use asset configuration vs. [resources](/docs/concepts/resources)
+
+---
+
+<details>
+  <summary>Prerequisites</summary>
+
+To follow the steps in this guide, you'll need:
+
+- A basic understanding of Dagster and assets. See the [Quick Start](/tutorial/quick-start) tutorial for an overview.
+- Familiarity with [Pydantic](https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/)
+- An understanding of [Ops vs Assets](/concepts/ops-jobs/ops-vs-assets)
+</details>
+
+---
+
+## Adding configuration to assets
+
+For an asset to be configurable, you must first define a schema that inherits from the Dagster `Config` class. For example, let's say we want to allow users to change the lookback time window for an asset:
+
+<CodeExample filePath="guides/data-modeling/configuring-assets/config-schema.py" language="python" title="Adding configuration" />
+
+## Modifying the configuration when launching a run
+
+When launching a run using Dagster's Launchpad, you can provide a run config file as YAML or JSON that overrides the default configuration for your asset:
+
+<CodeExample filePath="guides/data-modeling/configuring-assets/run_config.yaml" language="yaml" title="Run config provided via UI" />
+
+Run configurations reference an `op` which is the underlying compute associated with an asset. See [the Ops vs Assets](/concepts/ops-jobs/ops-vs-assets) documentation for more information.
