Use this guide to copy SourceMedium-provided Looker Studio data source templates and connect them to your environment.

When to use this

  • You want to build new reports using the SourceMedium table layer without recreating fields from scratch.
  • You want to start from an existing template and modify dimensions/metrics.

Prerequisites

  • Access to Looker Studio
  • Access to your SourceMedium datasets in BigQuery (or your managed warehouse, if applicable)

Steps

  1. Start with the template directory (if provided by your team).
  2. Make a copy of the data source.
  3. Map the copied data source to your account’s tables/datasets.
  4. Validate field types (dates, numbers, booleans) before building charts.
