### Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

To connect Looker to Drivetrain, you need:

* An active Looker account
* Admin privileges on Looker
* Admin privileges in Drivetrain

### Looker Setup <a href="#looker-setup" id="looker-setup"></a>

Drivetrain supports integration with Looker via API from a **dedicated user account**. To get started you would need to create a dedicated user on Looker for Drivetrain.

#### Step 1: Add a User <a href="#step-1-add-a-user" id="step-1-add-a-user"></a>

1. Login to your Looker account.
2. Navigate to the **Users** page which is in the **Users** section of the **Admin** menu. This lists all the user accounts on your Looker instance.
3. To add a user, click the **Add Users** button.
4. In the **Adding a new user** page, type or paste the email address shared by your customer success manager.
5. Provide the user with the default **Developer** role.

#### Step 2: Generate Credentials <a href="#step-1-add-a-user" id="step-1-add-a-user"></a>

Only admins can generate API3 Keys (required for integration). The steps to do so are as follows:

1. Navigate to the **Users** page which is in the **Users** section of the **Admin** menu. This lists all the user accounts on your Looker instance.
2. Navigate to our user and click the **Edit Keys** button. Click the **New API3 key** button to generate a new key.
3. Note the **Client ID**, **Client Secret** and **Subdomain** and share them with your customer success manager.
