AI assistance with Gemini in Looker

Gemini in Looker provides AI assistance to help you in the following ways:

  • Create calculated fields using natural language. Gemini in Looker lets you create calculated fields in Looker Studio by prompting you to describe the kinds of fields that you'd like to create. Based on your input, Looker Studio suggests a formula for a calculated field using fields from your data source and Looker Studio functions and operators.

  • Add Looker Studio content to your Slides presentation. Gemini in Looker lets you import components from your Looker Studio Pro reports into your Slides presentations. Looker Studio inserts report charts as images, then generates a textual summary of each image and inserts the summary as a text element. You can generate a new Slides presentation using all visualizations in a Looker Studio report or selected visualizations only, or add or update Looker Studio content to an existing Slides presentation. You can also update the Looker Studio data that has been imported in a Slides presentation.
