How Looker Studio loads data
Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio) attaches a report to a data source: Google Sheets, BigQuery, a file upload, or a connector. Built-in connectors do not send a Bearer token to a private API. Upload the CSV, or put the CSV in Google Sheets first and pick that sheet.
Connect
- Sign in to Looker Studio with your Google account and open Create → Report.
- Create new data source.
- File Upload (or Google Sheets if you imported the CSV there).
- If the CSV is not already in the order email, use your API key and dataset id from the catalog or confirmation email, for example
B-026, to downloadhttps://data-marketplace-data.bakosbence.com/v1/data/B-026?format=csvin Excel or Power BI, withAuthorization=Bearer mk_…and Anonymous sign-in, then save it as CSV. - Drop the CSV. Wait until it finishes.
- Add to report.
Google’s file upload help lists size limits for this connector.
If it fails
- Upload rejected — file too large, or not a CSV. Try one dataset, not
/v1/datafor every site. - Download errors — API errors.
