Looker configuration and entry-points
Most, if not all, relevant data to any given team can be found in boards. Adding these to your Looker instance will make navigating Looker much easier.
There are links within Salesforce that go to a Looker dashboard for each account’s Sourcegraph instance.
- Within each account’s Account Summary there’s a ‘Looker Report’ link. This will take you to this report, unless the account does not have a Sourcegraph instance. This will be true for any prospect that has not yet at the POC stage.
- There’s a Salesforce report that lists all of your accounts and their Looker links.

Two notes on using Looker:
- You can mess with the filters to navigate to the account you’re looking for. You won’t change the underlying dashboard that others see.
- You can click ‘Explore from here’ to create your separate branch of the dashboard. You can add/edit/remove fields to do a quick analysis and like filters, you won’t change the underlying dashboards. You can always save the look if you want to keep it!
