Accessing Looker from Looker Studio
Looker Studio (formerly Google Data Studio) is a web-based tool for building interactive dashboards and reports from diverse data sources such as BigQuery, Google Analytics, CSV files, and others. Looker Studio can connect to your Looker semantic layer (LookML model), letting you build dashboards and reports using your Looker’s modeled data.
Additional integration between Looker and Looker Studio is planned for later.
Getting ready
Using the Google account you used for Google Cloud Platform, go to the Looker Studio website https://lookerstudio.google.com/. In this section, we will create a new Looker Studio report and connect it to Looker as a data source. Remember, Looker doesn’t store data itself but instead uses a modeling layer to organize and prepare data from underlying databases or data warehouses for analysis.
