Set up

Add Looker to Warp in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Warp then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Looker in Runlayer

    Add Looker from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Warp to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Warp by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Warp reaches Looker’s 30 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Looker

    Each user signs in to Looker with OAuth. Runlayer keeps the tokens out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Looker from Warp

    Looker’s approved tools appear in Warp. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Warp

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Warp exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Looker call from Warp passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Warp as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Warp yet, so control happens at the gateway.
