In Looker, a project is a collection of files that describe the objects, connections, and user interface elements that will be used to carry out SQL queries for a Looker user. At the most basic level, these files describe how your database tables relate to each other and how Looker should interpret them.

Once you have created a connection between Kyvos and Looker, you need to create a project. When you create a project in Looker, by default, a model file is created. You can provide the connection details in the model file. You will also have to create a view file in which dimensions and measures of the current semantic model must be defined.

This section explains the procedure and steps for creating a project, model, and view file.

Creating Views in a Project

A view file generally defines a single view within Looker. A view corresponds to either a single table in your database or a single  derived table . The view file specifies a table to query and the fields (dimensions and measures) to include from that table.
