2

Add the credentials in Shanone

Go to Integrations > Looker in the Shanone dashboard and enter your Looker instance’s base URL, the client ID, and the client secret.
3

Retry your request

Once saved, shanone_execute_tool calls for looker_* tools will succeed.

​
Common Use Cases

Natural-language BI

Ask conversational analytics questions against a Looker Explore instead of building a query by hand

Scheduled report delivery

Set up a scheduled plan to email a dashboard render on a recurring cadence

Embedded dashboards

Generate an SSO or cookieless embed URL to surface a dashboard inside another app

Content audits

Validate content integrity and find stale or broken looks/dashboards across folders

​
Troubleshooting

Use looker_create_query_task plus looker_get_query_task_results for async execution instead of looker_run_query, which blocks until the query finishes.
SSO embedding requires the embed secret configured in Looker’s Admin > Embed settings to match what Shanone is signing with — double check the embed domain allowlist too.
User, role, and group management require the connected API3 credential to belong to a Looker user with Admin permissions — a viewer-level credential won’t work for these calls.
