Cannot Access Looker Studio – Message: “You do not have access” with Google Workspace Essentials

Hello all !

I’m currently unable to access Looker Studio and keep getting this message:

“We are sorry, but you do not have access to Looker Studio. Please log in to your Admin Console to enable it.”

I’m using a Google Workspace Essentials account, which I’ve linked to my professional email address. I thought Looker Studio would be included in Essentials, or at least accessible in some way, but it seems I’m being blocked due to admin restrictions.

However, when I log into my Admin Console, I don’t even see Looker Studio listed as a service — so I’m unable to enable or configure anything related to it, despite the error message.

Could you please clarify:

  • Is Looker Studio available for Google Workspace Essentials users?

  • If yes, what exactly needs to be enabled in the Admin Console?

  • If not, How i can manage using Looker freely ?

Thanks in advance for your support!
