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.

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

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 Source

Execute 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 Source

Run 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 Source

Pull 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 Source

Retrieve 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 Source

Access 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 Source

Fetch 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 Tool

Programmatically 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 Tool

Configure 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 Tool

Create, 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 Tool

Render 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 Tool

Organize 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 Tool

Initiate 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.

Templates

Pre-built Looker workflows you can deploy in minutes.
