Who can access support?
Looker Support is available to administrators and developers on your Looker instance. This allows us to focus on your most involved users, who may need in-depth help with the Looker product. You should develop your own internal process for helping your end users, especially because you'll know the ins and outs of your data better than anyone.
Ticketing System
You do not need to login to a ticketing system in order to reach support. Looker maintains a ticketing system internally, and all support requests can be viewed through the customer portal in the Looker Help Center. You can communicate with Support directly through the portal, through chat, or by email.
Escalation
Looker does not have an escalation path, because every Support Analyst is trained to the same, high level. We do have internal processes to make sure lengthy issues maintain focus, and to pull in engineering resources if necessary, but you do not need to follow a special process or achieve a certain level of severity to reach these resources.
