Connecting Drift to Looker

Connecting Drift to Looker can be achieved through several steps:

  • First, you need to export your Drift data, which can be done by using Drift's REST API to extract the desired metrics and dimensions.
  • Next, you'll need to transform the data, ensuring it's in a format that's compatible with Looker. This may require cleaning, standardizing, or aggregating the data as necessary.
  • Once the data is prepared, you'll need to load it into a data warehouse that's compatible with Looker, such as Google BigQuery, Amazon Redshift, or Snowflake. This process can involve using an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tool or writing custom scripts to import the data.
  • After loading the data, you'll need to create a connection between Looker and the data warehouse, which can be done within the Looker platform by providing the necessary credentials and connection details.
  • Finally, with the connection established, you can start building custom Drift Looker dashboard and visualizations to analyze and explore your Drift data.
  • Alternatively, you can use Improvado, an advanced marketing analytics platform, to streamline the process of connecting Drift to Looker, saving time and resources compared to manual methods.
