Automate Business Intelligence Workflows with Looker Integrations
Connect Looker to your tech stack to sync data, trigger actions from insights, and embed analytics into automated workflows.
What can you do with the Looker connector?
Looker is a business intelligence and data exploration platform built for data-driven organizations. Integrating Looker with your CRM, marketing tools, data warehouses, and communication platforms lets teams act on insights automatically rather than waiting for someone to check a dashboard. With tray.ai, you can build workflows that pull Looker data into operational systems, trigger alerts from dashboard anomalies, and keep your analytics environment in sync with the rest of your business.
Automate & integrate Looker
Automating Looker business processes or integrating Looker data is made easy with Tray.ai.
Use case
Automated Insight-to-Action Workflows
When a Looker Look or dashboard query returns results that hit a defined threshold — a spike in churn risk or a drop in conversion rate — automatically trigger downstream actions in Salesforce, Slack, or your CRM. This closes the gap between spotting a problem and doing something about it, without anyone having to manually check a dashboard first.
- Cut time-to-action on critical business signals from hours to seconds
- Replace manual dashboard monitoring with event-driven automation
- Notify the right teams and trigger workflows the moment data thresholds are crossed
Use case
Scheduled Report Distribution and Data Delivery
Stop manually exporting Looker results and emailing them around. Automate extraction, transformation, and delivery of query results to stakeholders via email, Slack, Google Sheets, or cloud storage. Set any schedule you need and route data to the right destination based on content, team, or region.
- Stop manually exporting and distributing reports
- Stakeholders get up-to-date data at the right time, without anyone pushing it to them
- Route different report outputs to different destinations based on dynamic logic
Use case
CRM and Sales Data Enrichment from Looker
Pull aggregated metrics and behavioral signals from Looker — product usage scores, revenue trends, pipeline velocity — and write them back into Salesforce or HubSpot as custom fields. Sales and customer success teams get the analytical context they need directly in the tools they're already working in.
- Give sales reps data-driven context without requiring them to log into Looker
- Keep CRM records enriched with the latest analytical scores and metrics
- Reduce data silos between your BI layer and your go-to-market tools
Use case
Data Pipeline Monitoring and Alerting
Use Looker queries to monitor the health of your data pipelines and warehouse tables — checking for row count anomalies, null rates, or freshness gaps — and automatically alert data engineering teams via PagerDuty, Slack, or Jira when something looks off.
- Catch data quality issues before they impact downstream reports
- Automatically create incidents or tickets when monitoring queries fail thresholds
- Keep data engineering teams informed without building custom monitoring infrastructure
Use case
Customer Health Scoring and Lifecycle Automation
Run Looker queries that calculate customer health scores based on product usage, support tickets, and engagement metrics, then sync those scores to your customer success platform or CRM. From there, trigger lifecycle automations like QBR scheduling, at-risk alerts, or renewal workflows automatically.
- Keep customer health scores current without manual refreshes or CSV exports
- Trigger automated playbooks in Gainsight or HubSpot based on Looker-computed scores
- Give customer success teams real-time visibility into account health changes
Use case
Marketing Performance Sync and Campaign Optimization
Extract campaign performance metrics from Looker and push them into marketing platforms, spreadsheets, or executive dashboards. You can also trigger budget adjustment workflows or pause underperforming campaigns based on thresholds you define directly in Looker — no analyst required to kick things off.
- Automate weekly and monthly marketing performance report generation
- Connect Looker performance data to campaign management tools for closed-loop optimization
- Free analysts from manually compiling and distributing marketing reports
Build Looker Agents
Give agents secure and governed access to Looker through Agent Builder and Agent Gateway for MCP.
Run Looker Looks
Data SourceExecute saved Looks to retrieve pre-built query results and use the data as context for analysis or decision-making. An agent can surface specific business metrics without constructing queries from scratch.
Query Explores Directly
Data SourceRun ad hoc queries against Looker Explores to retrieve tailored datasets based on dynamic conditions. An agent can answer specific business questions by pulling only the relevant dimensions and measures.
Fetch Dashboard Data
Data SourcePull all tiles and underlying data from a Looker dashboard for a full snapshot of business performance. Agents can use this to write summaries, spot anomalies, or kick off downstream workflows based on what the dashboard shows.
Look Up User and Group Information
Data SourceRetrieve details about Looker users, groups, and their assigned roles or permissions. Useful for agents managing access control workflows or auditing who has visibility into specific data.
Retrieve LookML Model Metadata
Data SourceAccess metadata about LookML models, Explores, dimensions, and measures to understand how available data is structured. Agents can use this to point users toward the right data sources or validate query parameters before running them.
Monitor Scheduled Deliveries
Data SourceFetch details about scheduled data deliveries and reports configured in Looker. An agent can use this to audit delivery status, catch failures, or confirm that critical reports are going out on time.
Create and Update Looks
Agent ToolProgrammatically create new saved Looks or update existing ones with revised queries or display settings. An agent can automate the setup of reporting artifacts in response to business requests.
Schedule Report Delivery
Agent ToolConfigure or trigger scheduled deliveries of Looks and dashboards to destinations like email or cloud storage. An agent can automate recurring report distribution without anyone touching the Looker UI.
Manage User Access and Permissions
Agent ToolCreate, update, or deactivate Looker users and adjust their group memberships or role assignments. Agents can automate user provisioning and deprovisioning as part of broader identity management workflows.
Render and Export Visualizations
Agent ToolRender Looker content like Looks or dashboards into image or PDF formats for use in reports, presentations, or notifications. An agent can attach these exports to emails, Slack messages, or document repositories automatically.
Create and Manage Folders
Agent ToolOrganize Looker content by creating or updating folders and managing their permissions. Agents can automate content organization as teams or projects are created or restructured.
Trigger and Monitor Running Queries
Agent ToolInitiate queries programmatically and track their execution status within Looker. This lets agents orchestrate data retrieval across multi-step workflows and handle results when queries complete.

Challenges Tray.ai solves
Common obstacles when integrating Looker — and how Tray.ai handles them.
Challenge
Bridging the Gap Between Analytics and Operational Systems
Looker surfaces insights well, but getting those insights into the CRMs, ticketing tools, and messaging platforms where work actually happens requires custom scripting or manual exports. Teams end up copying data by hand or maintaining fragile one-off scripts.
How Tray.ai helps
tray.ai has pre-built Looker connector actions alongside connectors for Salesforce, HubSpot, Jira, and hundreds of other tools, so you can build bi-directional data flows with a visual workflow builder without writing custom code.
Challenge
Managing Complex Looker API Authentication and Query Construction
The Looker API requires OAuth token management, nuanced query construction using the Looker query object model, and careful handling of rate limits and pagination. That's a lot of development overhead before you've written a single line of actual integration logic.
How Tray.ai helps
tray.ai handles Looker OAuth authentication natively and abstracts the query API into simple, configurable actions. You can run inline queries, retrieve Looks, and manage schedules without writing API boilerplate or managing token refresh logic.
Challenge
Keeping Downstream Systems in Sync with Evolving LookML Models
As LookML models evolve — fields get renamed, explores get restructured, new dimensions get added — hardcoded integrations that reference specific field names break silently, producing incorrect or missing data in connected systems.
How Tray.ai helps
When LookML changes, you update the affected workflow in one place rather than hunting down scattered scripts. Field mappings are managed visually, and workflow versioning lets you test against schema changes before pushing anything to production.
Runs a scheduled Looker query, evaluates the results against configurable thresholds, posts an alert message in Slack, and automatically creates a Jira ticket for the relevant team when a threshold is breached.
Automatically runs a Looker Look or query on a daily schedule, extracts the resulting data, and writes it into a specified Google Sheet tab — overwriting or appending rows based on configuration.
Runs a Looker query to retrieve calculated customer health scores, then upserts those scores as custom fields on the corresponding Salesforce Account records to power CS team workflows.
Listens for Looker scheduled plan deliveries or threshold alerts and automatically enrolls matching HubSpot contacts or companies into designated workflows for follow-up, nurture, or escalation.
Runs a Looker query on a scheduled basis and uploads the resulting CSV or JSON data to a specified Amazon S3 bucket path for long-term storage, compliance archiving, or downstream pipeline ingestion.
