This sections goes through using [Google's Looker Studio](https://lookerstudio.google.com/u/0/navigation/reporting) as a free and easy to use visualization tool that you can hook up your BigQuery Stellar network data to.

There are many other free/paid visualization tools available. Hubble is compatible with any visualization tool with a BigQuery connector.

## Creating your first visualization

* Follow [Google's Quick Start Guide](https://support.google.com/looker-studio/answer/9171315?hl=en)

## Hooking Up Data Sources

The following will use the Stellar Development Foundations public datasets and tables as an example to hook up data sources to Looker Studio

* Click `Create` in [Google's Looker Studio](https://lookerstudio.google.com/u/0/navigation/reporting)
* Click `Data Source`
* Find the `BigQuery` connector
* Use the project `crypto-stellar`
* Use the dataset `crypto_stellar`
* Select the table of interest
* Click `CONNECT`

When you create a new report you should be able to now access data from `crypto-stellar.crypto_stellar.<table name>`

## Making your first pie chart

* Click `Create` in [Google's Looker Studio](https://lookerstudio.google.com/u/0/navigation/reporting)
* Click `Report`
* Click `My data sources`
* Click the data source you added above
* A table of the data should appear in a new report
* Click on the table
