Same logic, same joinable columns, same governance as your Sheets reports — without writing SQL per chart. THE ANALYST ### Write the logic once, dashboard forever Connect Data Studio to a Data Mart instead of writing per-dashboard SQL. Metrics stay consistent, logic stays centralized, and you stop fielding "why don't the numbers match?" tickets. ![Write the logic once, dashboard forever](/images/features/data-studio-connector/narrative-left.png) One Data Mart. Ten dashboards. Zero inconsistency. THE MARKETER ### Dashboards that match the spreadsheets & slack When every dashboard reads from the same Data Mart as Sheets reports and AI Insights, every number agrees. The reconciliation meeting becomes the decision meeting. ![Dashboards that match the spreadsheets & slack](/images/features/data-studio-connector/narrative-right.png) Same source, every tool. Numbers that finally agree. **Reusability is the whole point** — The Data Mart you built for Sheets is the same one feeding Data Studio. Update it once, and every connected dashboard updates with it. ## For Data Teams For Data Teams ## Write the logic once, dashboard forever Point Data Studio at a Data Mart instead of writing custom SQL per dashboard. Metrics stay consistent, logic stays centralized. ![Reuse your Data Marts as Data Studio sources](/images/features/data-studio-connector/analyst-1.png) #### Reuse your Data Marts as Data Studio sources Connect a governed Data Mart to Data Studio instead of writing custom SQL per dashboard. The business logic is already built — just pick columns and visualize. ![Joined columns work in Data Studio too](/images/features/data-studio-connector/analyst-2.png) #### Joined columns work in Data Studio too Native and joined columns from Joinable Data Marts appear together in Data Studio's field picker. Blend ads, CRM, and product data — without rewriting the join. ![Governed by the same "Available for Reports" toggle](/images/features/data-studio-connector/analyst-3.png) #### Governed by the same "Available for Reports" toggle Data Studio only sees Data Marts your team has marked as available — the same governance rule as Sheets. One toggle, one perimeter, every tool. ## For Dashboard Consumers For Dashboard Consumers ## Dashboards that match the spreadsheet When every dashboard reads from the same Data Mart as Sheets and AI Insights, every number agrees. ![The same number in Sheets and Data Studio](/images/features/data-studio-connector/business-1.png) #### The same number in Sheets and Data Studio Open a Sheet, open a Data Studio dashboard — same Data Mart, same numbers. Stakeholders stop reconciling versions before the meeting starts. ![Update the logic once. Every dashboard follows.](/images/features/data-studio-connector/business-2.png) #### Update the logic once. Every dashboard follows. Fix a metric in the Data Mart and every connected dashboard reflects the change instantly. No more hunting through Data Studio reports to patch the same logic ten times. ![Calculated fields and filters still work](/images/features/data-studio-connector/business-3.png) #### Calculated fields and filters still work Add Data Studio's native calculated fields, filters, and date ranges on top. The base data stays governed; your customizations layer on safely. ## Editions ## Included in all Cloud editions.

Same product. In April 2026, Google renamed Looker Studio back to Data Studio — the connector works seamlessly with either name. Existing dashboards, embeds, and links transitioned automatically. How is this different from connecting Data Studio directly to BigQuery? When you connect directly to BigQuery, each dashboard author writes their own SQL — leading to inconsistent metrics across reports. With the OWOX connector, every dashboard uses the same governed Data Mart, with the business logic, joins, and aliases already defined. Do joined columns from Joinable Data Marts work in Data Studio? Yes. Native and joined columns appear together in Data Studio's field picker. You can blend ads spend with CRM revenue, product usage with marketing data — all from the same Data Mart, without rewriting any SQL. Does the "Available for Reports" governance apply here? Yes. Data Studio only sees Data Marts your data team has marked as available for reporting — the same toggle that governs Spreadsheet Reporting. One rule, every consumer surface. Can I still use calculated fields and filters in Data Studio? Of course. The Data Mart provides the governed base; you layer Data Studio's native calculated fields, filters, and date ranges on top. Your customizations don't affect the underlying logic. Which editions include the Data Studio Connector? Included in all OWOX Cloud editions. Available as an add-on for self-managed plans. ## What users are saying ## Every claim has a receipt.
