What does the Content Validator do when run against Looks and dashboards?

The Content Validator is designed to check the integrity of Looks and dashboards by validating all references to LookML objects. This process ensures that any references to dimensions, measures, or explores within the Looks and dashboards conform to the defined structure in the LookML model. By running the Content Validator, developers can identify any broken links or misconfigured references that could lead to errors or unexpected results in the data visualizations.

This validation process is crucial for maintaining the overall accuracy and reliability of reports, as it helps catch issues early in the development process. Thus, it serves as a valuable tool for developers to ensure that their analytics content is functioning correctly and is in alignment with the underlying LookML definitions.
