We want to show looker dashboards on TV and we need simple way to authentication, the same as for grafana https://grafana.com/docs/http_api/auth/


Our digital signage solution support only Base Auth with custom Authentication header, do you support it?

We don’t support that method of authentication, that’s interesting. You can probably get this to work with SSO embedding, which lets you construct a special URL that contains authentication parameters.


It has to be generated from a script, so figuring that out with your digital signage solution might be equally confusing, but worth a shot. See the docs here:
