Default Visualization for Quickstart

Hello,

I’m attempting to create a quickstart that’s simple for my looker users. When I click on that quick start after it’s created, it defaults to a bar chart and doesn’t match the data. Is there a way to set the default to another kind of chart?

I just need it to be a simple table of information.

Unfortunately there’s no way to specify a visualisation type for quickstart queries. This is the main reason I use them sparingly andonly with simple cases that would have the right visualisation type chosen by the engine..

Is there any update on that matter?

Hi there. Is there any movement on this issue? Would be great to use Quick Starts as we build out our Looker environment.

Hey all! Choosing which visual appears for a Quick Start isn’t currently supported. If it’s something you’d like to see, please file a feature request within the Looker platform so the team can gauge interest! Here are directions on how to do so: https://www.googlecloudcommunity.com/gc/The-Kitchen-Table/Feature-Requests-How-your-feedback-makes-Looker-better/m-p/592042
