Looker Studio has announced that its Code Interpreter feature is now enabled by default for Pro subscribers, marking a significant enhancement to the platform's conversational analytics capabilities.
Feature Activation
The Code Interpreter for Conversational Analytics becomes automatically active when both the Gemini in Looker and Trusted Tester feature settings are enabled for the Google Cloud project associated with a Looker Studio Pro subscription.
Functionality
The Code Interpreter in Conversational Analytics serves as a Preview feature that bridges natural language and advanced analytics. The tool translates users' natural language questions into Python code and executes that code to deliver sophisticated analysis and visualizations.
User Management
Looker Studio users who possess appropriate permissions can control the feature's enablement through the Gemini in Looker page, which is accessible under User Settings. This provides administrators with flexibility in managing the feature's deployment across their organization.
Technical Requirements
The feature requires:
- Looker Studio Pro subscription
- Associated Google Cloud project
- Gemini in Looker feature setting enabled
- Trusted Tester feature setting enabled
This development represents Google's continued integration of AI-powered analytics tools within the Looker Studio ecosystem, offering Pro users enhanced capabilities for data analysis and visualization through natural language processing.
