About
A looker-get-parameters tool returns all the parameters from a given explore
in a given model in the source.
It’s compatible with the following sources:
looker-get-parameters accepts two parameters, the model and the explore.
Example
tools:
get_parameters:
kind: looker-get-parameters
source: looker-source
description: |
This tool retrieves a list of parameters defined within a specific Looker explore.
LookML parameters are dynamic input fields that allow users to influence query
behavior without directly modifying the underlying LookML. They are often used
with `liquid` templating to create flexible dashboards and reports, enabling
users to choose dimensions, measures, or other query components at runtime.
Parameters:
- model_name (required): The name of the LookML model, obtained from `get_models`.
- explore_name (required): The name of the explore within the model, obtained from `get_explores`.
The response is a json array with the following elements:
{
"name": "field name",
"description": "field description",
"type": "field type",
"label": "field label",
"label_short": "field short label",
"tags": ["tags", ...],
"synonyms": ["synonyms", ...],
"suggestions": ["suggestion", ...],
"suggest_explore": "explore",
"suggest_dimension": "dimension"
}
