Getting Started

We're pleased you've selected Looker Embedded for monday.com. This overview describes the app's key features.

Note: Looker and Looker Studio (formerly Google Data Studio) are two different products by Google. This app supports Looker only. For Looker Studio, use the Embedded Data Studio app instead.

Prerequisites

  • A subscription to Looker (distinct from Looker Studio).

Installation

Install the app from the monday.com marketplace. You may also need to configure Looker to allow external embedding.
