Data & infrastructure · API Access Token

Use Looker in Okou

Looker API 4.0 for dashboards, Looks, folders, LookML models, saved queries, reports, schedules, and approved query or render execution.

Once connected, supported Looker actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Looker

  • Read the authenticated Looker user profile.
  • Search accessible Looker content and inspect content metadata, favorites, and access entries.
  • List, search, and inspect accessible dashboards and their layout, filter, element, and LookML metadata.
  • List and inspect accessible folders, ancestors, children, looks, and dashboards.
  • List, search, and inspect accessible saved Looks.
  • List and inspect accessible LookML models, explores, and model metadata.
  • Inspect saved queries and read the status or results of already-created asynchronous query tasks.
  • Run saved, inline, URL-encoded, Look, or asynchronous queries; execution can consume warehouse and Looker resources.
