Setting up the Dashboard

Once that’s done you will get a link to the dashboard. This link should be opened in the Google-account that has access to the GCP-project.

Otherwise you won’t be able to get the data from Bigquery into your report.


The next step is to head in to the Looker-report and update the datasources.


Updating the data sources

We need to update the data sources to be able to provide the correct currency-icon for the currency you selected when creating the report as well as enable sharing with other accounts/emails.

In Looker, click on Resource → Manage added data sources.

For each of these data sources, do the following:

  1. Click on Edit

  2. In the top of the window, click on Data Credentials and change it to Owner’s Credentials (which will enable you to share the report with other accounts/emails):

  3. Update all of the currency-fields to be what you selected when setting up the report in Alvie:


    Once you’ve done doing this for all 4 data sources, you’re report is ready to use.
