The Looker Studio (formerly Data Studio) connector brings 3RD’s visibility, citation, and competitor data into your own Looker Studio reports — handy for blending AI-visibility data with the rest of your marketing reporting, or for client-facing dashboards if you’re an agency. It runs on the Export API, so anything the connector can chart, you can also pull yourself.
Citation Share, sentiment, and Recommended rate are in the Export API (/citation-share, /sentiment, and /recommended-rate) but not in the Looker Studio connector yet. To report on them today, pull them from the API directly.

Set it up

1

Generate an API key

In 3RD, go to Settings → Looker Studio and create an export API key, labelled so you know what it is for. See Authentication.
2

Authenticate the connector

Add the 3RD connector as a data source in Looker Studio and paste the key when prompted.
3

Build your report

3RD’s data fields become available like any other source — chart visibility trends next to your search and paid data, or build a per-client view.
For agencies: one report template, pointed at a different brand per client, gives every client the same executive dashboard, fed live from 3RD.
A key reads every brand in the organization that issued it, unless you limit it to specific brands when you create it. If a report is going to someone who should only see their own brand, build it on a key limited to that one brand.
