Connect Azure SQL and
Looker with AI

Automate the flow between your operational Azure SQL databases and Looker analytics layer. Stop manually syncing schemas, rebuilding LookML models when tables change, or writing custom ETL scripts to keep your BI reporting current with production data.

What you can automate today

Redbird gives your team ready-to-run workflows — just connect your accounts and go.

Sync Azure SQL schema changes to LookML model definitions automatically

When tables, columns, or data types change in Azure SQL, Redbird automatically updates corresponding LookML views and dimensions. Your Looker semantic layer stays in sync with production schema evolution without manual LookML refactoring or data team intervention.

Validate Looker metric definitions against actual Azure SQL data constraints

Redbird compares LookML measures and dimensions against Azure SQL schema metadata, foreign keys, and constraints. Catch metric definitions that reference dropped columns, incorrect joins, or data type mismatches before they break dashboards in production.

Generate LookML views from new Azure SQL tables and stored procedures

When developers add new tables or modify stored procedures in Azure SQL, Redbird analyzes the schema and generates baseline LookML view files with appropriate dimensions and joins. Analytics engineers get a head start on exposing new data sources to business users.

Archive Azure SQL records flagged in Looker data quality dashboards

When Looker Explores surface anomalies, duplicates, or incomplete records through data quality dashboards, Redbird moves flagged rows to Azure SQL archive tables. Keep production databases clean while preserving audit trails for compliance and troubleshooting.

Update Azure SQL operational flags based on Looker dashboard thresholds

When KPIs in Looker dashboards cross defined thresholds—like inventory falling below reorder points or SLA breach indicators—Redbird writes status flags back to Azure SQL. Operational systems can react to analytical insights without custom integration code.

Enrich Azure SQL customer records with Looker cohort and segment assignments

Redbird takes cohort definitions and customer segments calculated in Looker—lifetime value tiers, engagement scores, churn risk—and writes them back to Azure SQL customer tables. Power personalization, marketing automation, and operational workflows with analytics-derived attributes.

Live in four steps

No engineers, no pipelines to maintain. Redbird handles the connectivity — you focus on the outcome.

01

Connect your accounts

Authorize Azure SQL and Looker with OAuth or API credentials. Redbird never stores your data — it just passes through.

02

Describe what you want

Tell Redbird what to do in plain language — no SQL, no code, no configuration files required.

03

Review and activate

Redbird shows you exactly what it will do before running anything. Approve the workflow, set a schedule, and switch it on.

04

Let it run — and iterate

Workflows run on your schedule or on triggers. Every run is logged. Adjust with natural language at any time.

Built for data-driven teams

Redbird understands both Azure SQL's relational structure and foreign key relationships, and Looker's LookML semantic layer with its explores, joins, and derived tables.

AI that reads SQL schemas and LookML models

Redbird parses Azure SQL system catalogs to understand tables, indexes, constraints, and stored procedures—then maps them to Looker's LookML views, explores, and join logic. The AI recognizes when a LookML dimension references a renamed Azure SQL column, when a new table should become an explore, or when data types have diverged. No manual field mapping or brittle column name matching required.

10×

faster than building custom sync scripts between Azure SQL and Looker

No Python ETL scripts, no manual LookML refactoring when schemas change, no debugging join path inconsistencies

Auto-generated reports

Redbird can pull from Azure SQL and Looker simultaneously, merge the results, and format a polished report — sent on a schedule or on demand.

Trigger-based alerts

Set conditions in natural language. Get notified in Slack or email the moment a threshold is crossed in either Azure SQL or Looker.

Enterprise-grade security

SOC 2 Type II certified. Data flows encrypted in transit and at rest. Fine-grained permission controls with full audit logs.

Bidirectional sync

Push data from Azure SQL into Looker, or from Looker back into Azure SQL. Resolve conflicts with configurable merge rules.

Full audit trail

Every workflow run is logged — what ran, what changed, and why. Replay or revert any individual step at any time.

Triggers & actions for every team

Start workflows from schema changes in Azure SQL or metric updates in Looker—Redbird connects both systems in either direction.

Azure SQL
Triggers & Actions
Trigger

Table schema modified

Fires when columns are added, removed, or data types change in tracked Azure SQL tables.

Trigger

New table created in database

Triggers when a new table appears in specified Azure SQL databases or schemas.

Trigger

Stored procedure updated

Detects when stored procedure definitions change, affecting downstream reporting logic.

Action

Execute parameterized query

Run SELECT, UPDATE, or stored procedure calls against Azure SQL with dynamic parameters.

Action

Insert or upsert records

Write new rows or update existing records in Azure SQL tables based on workflow data.

Action

Archive rows to historical table

Move records matching criteria to archive tables while maintaining referential integrity.

Looker
Triggers & Actions
Trigger

LookML model deployed

Fires when a LookML project is deployed to production, signaling new metric definitions.

Trigger

Dashboard tile exceeds threshold

Triggers when a dashboard visualization crosses defined KPI limits or anomaly thresholds.

Trigger
