Another approach would be some sort of a "sample filter" which picks a small subset of the data but disables itself if any real filters are placed on the source. |

In order to prevent really large queries, we need the ability to prevent queries from running without a filter on a specific field (or fields).
required_filter: field
or
required_filter: [field, ...]
LookML has
conditionally_filter
, which basically says that one of these fields must have a filter. I'm not sure how often this feature is used. I'm pretty sure it is not well understood.Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
