How to Rename Pages in Looker Studio

Renaming pages in Looker Studio is a simple yet crucial task for organizing and presenting data effectively in your reports. In my experience, efficient management of page titles can significantly enhance the readability and professionalism of your reports.

Step-by-Step Guide to Rename a Page in Looker Studio:

  1. Open Your Report:
    Begin by navigating to Looker Studio and opening the report where you intend to rename a page. Ensure you have editing access to the report.

  2. Navigate to the Page:
    In the top menu of your report, you will find the page tabs. Click on the tab of the page you wish to rename.

  3. Access Page Settings:
    Right-click on the page tab you selected. A dropdown menu will appear. Look for an option labeled “Rename,” which is typically found near the bottom of the menu.

  4. Rename the Page:
    After clicking “Rename,” a dialog box will open. Here, you can type in the new name for your page. From my view, it’s best to choose a name that clearly describes the data or insights the page contains, as this will make navigation easier for users.

  5. Save the Changes:
    Press Enter or click outside the dialog box to save the new name. The page tab will immediately reflect the new title.

Additional Tips for Managing Pages in Looker Studio:

  • Organizing Pages:
    If your report contains multiple pages, keeping them well organized is as important as naming them properly. You can rearrange the order of the pages by clicking and dragging the page tabs to your preferred order. This is particularly useful when you want to guide the viewer through your data in a logical sequence.

  • Duplicating Pages:
    Sometimes, you might find it useful to duplicate a page, especially if you want a similar layout or design with different data. Right-click on the page tab and select “Duplicate” from the dropdown menu. You can then rename the new copy following the same steps outlined above.

  • Deleting Pages:
    To maintain a clean and focused report, remove any unnecessary pages by right-clicking on the page tab and selecting “Delete.” A confirmation dialog will appear to prevent accidental deletions.

Integrating With Google Sheets:
For those using data from Google Sheets, renaming pages in your Looker Studio reports becomes even more crucial as it helps maintain continuity and clarity when analyzing complex data sets
