In this thrilling video from Google Cloud Tech, we dive headfirst into the world of Looker Studio Community connectors and visualizations. Picture this: you've got a new marketing tool, and your stakeholders are clamoring to analyze the data using Looker Studio. How do you get that data in there? Simple. You either create a custom Looker Studio community connector or utilize an existing one to seamlessly connect and transform your marketing data into a format Looker Studio can digest. Once you've got your hands on that precious data, your stakeholders demand a unique way to visualize it. But fear not, for you can craft your very own Looker Studio community visualization to showcase your data in a way that's as unique as a Pagani Huayra.
Now, let's talk community connectors. These bad boys are AppScript-based applications that act as the gateway between any internet-accessible data source and Looker Studio. From commercial platforms like Google Analytics to your own enterprise data sources, the possibilities are as vast as the open road. Building a connector is a thrilling ride - you'll need an AppScript project with essential files like appscript.json and code.gs, housing crucial methods like get auth type, get config, get schema, and get data. These methods are the fuel that powers your connector, defining authentication mechanisms, configuration options, data source fields, and the data fetching process.
But wait, there's more! Let's rev things up with Looker Studio Community visualizations. These custom-built JavaScript marvels bring your data to life in Looker Studio reports like a symphony of horsepower. To create one, you'll need a Google Cloud Storage bucket storing vital files like manifest.json, config JSON, JavaScript, and optional CSS files. The manifest.json file serves as your roadmap, guiding Looker Studio to locate your visualization's essential components. The config JSON file sets the stage by defining supported data fields and style options, while the JavaScript file interacts with Looker Studio using the powerful Looker Studio Community Component Library. By following these exhilarating steps, you can craft, test, and unleash your visualization masterpiece upon the Looker Studio gallery for all to behold.
