I’m an admin for my company’s Looker instance. The Content Validator doesn’t provide the functionality I’d like, albeit it does offer the option to input and find a field, view, explore, or model “name” and to input a “replacement … name.”
What I’d like is to only find, and not replace, a field name specifically, and have the result(s) returned in the UI (similar to what’s shown in the Content Validator pane when the “Validate” button is clicked).
I feel the same way. I can’t help it, so I switch to development mode, comment out the Dimension/Measure , and run Content Validator to find out.
Check Looker Int/ system activity explore. There is an option to select ‘Fields’ (under Query) and view all the lookId’s and dashboardId’s which contain that field name. Call the field as a filter and pass your field name value with ‘Contains’.
Thanks for the suggestion, @masutaka-pay2 . I’m finding that your suggestion is not capturing nor showing the results I expected once I switch to a dev branch, comment out the field, and run the Content Validator. @Shru , your approach shows exactly what I need, thanks!
The Looker Int/system feature is available under Looker’s Admin area. I’m on the free version of Looker Studio. Am I out of luck?
