create_look(body, fields)

Implementation Notes

Create a Look.

To create a look to display query data, first create the query with create_query()) then assign the query’s id to the query_id property in the call to create_look().

To place the look into a particular space, assign the space’s id to the space_id property in the call to create_look().

Search Looks beta

GET/api/4.0/looks/search
search_looks(id, title, description, content_favorite_id, folder_id, user_id, view_count, deleted, query_id, curate, last_viewed_at, fields, page, per_page, limit, offset, sorts, filter_or)

Implementation Notes

Search Looks.

Returns an array of Look objects that match the specified search criteria.

If multiple search params are given and filter_or is FALSE or not specified, search params are combined in a logical AND operation. Only rows that match all search param criteria will be returned.

If filter_or is TRUE, multiple search params are combined in a logical OR operation. Results will include rows that match any of the search criteria.

String search params use case-insensitive matching. String search params can contain % and ‘_’ as SQL LIKE pattern match wildcard expressions. example=”dan%” will match “danger” and “Danzig” but not “David” example=”D_m%” will match “Damage” and “dump”

Integer search params can accept a single value or a comma separated list of values. The multiple values will be combined under a logical OR operation - results will match at least one of the given values.

Most search params can accept “IS NULL” and “NOT NULL” as special expressions to match or exclude (respectively) rows where the column is null.

Boolean search params accept only “true” and “false” as values.

Get a single look by id with look(id))

Update Look beta

PATCH/api/4.0/looks/{look_id}
update_look(look_id, body, fields)

Implementation Notes

Modify a Look.

Use this function to modify parts of a look. Property values given in a call to update_look are applied to the existing look, so there’s no need to include properties whose values are not changing. It’s best to specify only the properties you want to change and leave everything else out of your update_look call. Look properties marked ‘read-only’ will be ignored.

When a user deletes a look in the Looker UI, the look data remains in the database but is marked with a deleted flag (“soft-deleted”). Soft-deleted looks can be undeleted (by an admin) if the delete was in error.

To soft-delete a look via the API, use update_look()) to change the look’s deleted property to true. You can undelete a look by calling update_look to change the look’s deleted property to false.

Soft-deleted looks are excluded from the results of all_looks()) and search_looks()), so they essentially disappear from view even though they still reside in the db. In API 3.1 and later, you can pass deleted: true as a parameter to search_looks()) to list soft-deleted looks.

NOTE: delete_look()) performs a “hard delete” - the look data is removed from the Looker database and destroyed. There is no “undo” for delete_look().
