A dashboard is an executive view of multiple visualizations arranged logically. These visualizations result from different queries generated by Looker. To render the dashboard interactive, we can add filters.

In Looker, we can build as many dashboards as we want so that each dashboard can be customized to the unique needs of the individuals who use it.

There are two ways to check for ideas to build dashboards in Looker:

  1. Check dashboards that your fellow team members built within your Looker environment. Make sure that you have view/edit access to shared spaces in Looker, which other team members create. In case you don’t have access, please get in touch with your Looker admin. To check which spaces/folders you have access to, go to Browse Panel at the top and click on the available options:
  2. Check dashboards that have been built by people from other organizations who use Looker. Many blogs and websites on the internet can give us ideas about dashboards that Looker can easily create. For example:
