Supermetrics offers a wide range of free report templates for Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio). Visit our template gallery to explore the full collection.
There are 2 ways to create your own reports from these templates in Looker Studio: download them through our template gallery, or add them through a data source file.
Instructions
Add a template from the gallery
Before you begin, ensure you’re logged into Looker Studio with the Google account you use with Supermetrics.
- Log in to Looker Studio.
- In a new browser tab, open the Supermetrics Looker Studio template gallery.
- Choose a template that matches your data sources.
- Click the template. This will open the template in Looker Studio — if it asks you to log in, use the Google Account that you use with Supermetrics.
- Click the 3-dot menu in the top right.
- Click Make a copy.
- Choose the data source you want to connect to the template.
- Click Copy Report.
Once these steps are complete, you can fully customize the template — add, remove, and modify charts and tables to meet your needs.
Add a template with a data source file
Follow these steps to add a new data source to Supermetrics.
At the last step, navigate to the bottom of the data source window and select Use report templates for new reports before clicking Connect.
Please note that if you choose this option, the default Supermetrics template for the selected data source will be used whenever you create a new report from this data source file.
Troubleshooting
Templates with "Unknown" as their original data source
Some templates from Supermetrics pull data from multiple data sources shown as "Unknown" under Original Data Source when you click Make a copy. Please follow the instructions linked in the templates to identify the data sources, query types, and the order of data sources inserted in the template.
Set a target value in a report template
Sometimes, you might need to customize a Supermetrics template’s “Target value” report element.
For example, page 2 of our Google My Business report template features a report element that displays data based on whether a target has been met. You can customize the target’s value to make it as useful as possible for your report.
Follow these instructions to set your own value in this report element.
- Open your report template in Looker Studio.
- In Edit mode, click the report element you’d like to customize.
- Navigate to the Data section in the Supermetrics sidebar.
- Scroll to the Target section.
- In the Target value field, set the value you want.
Repeat these steps for any other report elements in your template that need custom target values.
