How to view video closed captions and transcripts
The Gopher for Chrome Add-on for Sheets provides a powerful way to manage and gain insight into Chrome Devices enrolled on a Google Workspace domain. The features described below are available to trial or paid (basic or premium) users of Gopher for Chrome.
Thanks to the power of Google Looker Studio, several of Gopher for Chrome's key auto-refreshing reports can now be displayed as rich, shareable, and embeddable dashboards.
Before you start, some gotchas to look out for:
- Before you will be able to use Looker Studio connectors, you must turn the Looker Studio service on for your OU and accept the Google Looker Studio terms of service from Google's UI.
- Some third-party Chrome Extensions, such as UBlock Origin, Securly, and NetOp, are known to cause interference with the Looker Studio Connector to template workflow. We believe this results from the blockage of Google Analytics traffic. If you encounter a System error for all graphs in your templates, you may need to disable these extensions and redo the connector setup steps.
