Why are there errors on downloaded reports?

If you see errors on downloaded reports like the ones listed below, this usually means your report contains more rows than is allowed. Set a row limit of 5k or less and try again.

Possible errors:

  • Error: Refusing to run query with no limit that Looker cannot stream incrementally. Please choose a smaller limit or remove table calculations.  

  • Error: Refusing to run query with no limit that Looker cannot stream incrementally. Please choose a smaller limit or remove the “window” measure types (such as running_total) from the query.
